<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Valentinian, post: 2616347, member: 44316&quot;]<font size="5">There is a lot written about imitations of Claudius types. Some is here:</font></p><p><a href="http://esty.ancients.info/imit/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://esty.ancients.info/imit/" rel="nofollow">http://esty.ancients.info/imit/</a></p><p><font size="5">and much more is in the articles cited on the page of reference works linked at the end of that URL.</font></p><p><font size="5">On the reference page I wrote:</font></p><p><font size="5">&quot;If you are interested in ancient imitations, you will find the literature somewhat unsatisfactory. The first work you should consult is the late George Boon&#039;s long (87 pages, 8 plates, and some line drawings) survey article,&quot;Counterfeit Coins in Roman Britain,&quot; in Coins and the Archaeologist, second edition, 1988, edited by John Casey and Richard Reece and published in the Seaby series coin books. The article is well illustrated, heavily footnoted, and covers almost the entire range of ancient imitations of Roman coins.&quot; </font></p><p><br /></p><p>That OP type is very commonly found in England, and not commonly found elsewhere.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
