<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 1058299, member: 19463&quot;]My suggestion is that you not take as absolute the ID&#039;s of the coins found claiming to be Antioch.&nbsp; As you say, some are clearly Eastern but some could be the result of a cataloger who knows no more about it than you do.&nbsp; For more guidance on this, I might suggest posting on Forvm and hoping for a clue fom Curtis Clay or someone else who is really into these distinctions.&nbsp; There always seem to be coins that just don&#039;t fit the easy distinctions we rely on and that may just mean that our previous ideas were more easy than correct.&nbsp; RIC separates Antioch into local style and a style copying Rome.&nbsp; How this idea has held up to 50 years of further investigation is unknown to me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
