<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 2722279, member: 19463"]This is a great coin. It is interesting how long the low production of bronzes lasted. After a real glut of coins under the Antonines and a good number in the first year of Septimius, production really fell off until sometime in the reign of Severus Alexander. I have heard the explanation that there were so many excess coins from before 193 in circulation that it took a while to need many. I wonder if there is more than this to the matter.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
