The average weight was 3.81 grams with a st dv = 0.29. The max / min weights were 4.15 / 2.92. This issue had a lot of variation in weight. Several coins are over 4 grams and 4 have weights of less than 3.3 grams. This coin is so worn that the bankers marks barely show. I call this my omega coin grade. I have one of Anthony&#039;s legionary denarii about this worn. I guess this was a low weight coin so it circulated a long time.</p><p>Cr. 472/1</p><p>BMCRR - 4018 - 4022</p><p>Bab, RSC - Papia 2</p><p>Syd. 964</p><p>Sear / CRI - 461 / 82[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
