<p>[QUOTE="Justin Lee, post: 3659960, member: 87404"]Do you mean the Imperial sestertii from his travels? They are typically much heavier, at around 25-27g, and the motif on the reverse of the AFRICA one has her with her hand extended with a scorpion, where yours appears to have something (like a reed) moving back upwards to the right. So to answer your specific earlier question, this leads me to believe it is not one of the imperial travel series, but is a provincial Alexandrian drachm.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I like that you saved him!
