<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 7531350, member: 19463"]My Vespasian of the type (71 AD?) is only 23.7g but much thinner and wider ('boardwalk margins'). I never considered calling it a 'hockey puck' since the proportions are thin compared to many sestertii. I have very few Flavian bronzes but, overall, they give me the impression as thin in proportions. Have you seen any year by year weight statistics or was there just a lot of daily variation through the period? I have no Titus Caesar sestertii.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1300371[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
