<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DonnaML, post: 7603051, member: 110350&quot;]I have one old Spink tag and envelope, for my Postumius Albinus denarius, that I was able at least to narrow down a little bit in terms of the date:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1309083[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://www.cointalk.com/attachments/spink-tags-for-postumius-albinus-sacrifice-denarius-jpg.1120642/" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>The tags have to be from before 2000, because that&#039;s when Spink moved from King St. to Southampton Row in Bloomsbury. See <a href="https://www.antiquestradegazette.com/news/2000/spink-to-join-the-bloomsbury-set/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.antiquestradegazette.com/news/2000/spink-to-join-the-bloomsbury-set/" rel="nofollow">https://www.antiquestradegazette.com/news/2000/spink-to-join-the-bloomsbury-set/</a>. I think they might be from before 1974, because the only catalog citation is to Sydenham (S. 745), with no citation to Crawford -- which was published in 1974 and almost immediately replaced Sydenham as the most authoritative reference book for Roman Republican coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>I haven&#039;t a clue as to what &quot;Series 35&quot; might mean.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
