<p>[QUOTE="+VGO.DVCKS, post: 8200208, member: 110504"]Dang, I'm trying to geet out the door (this is my Friday), but I have another reference, not as good as Travaini, and have an example very much along the lines of yours, and attributed the same. Probably posted it at some point. You're cordially welcome to use the 'conversation' function to remind me about this ...or just try a search here for 'Robert Guiscard.'</p><p>(Edit: ) Okay, it's not panic time yet. My reference (Andrea, 2015) cites Travaini 1995 no. 34 and 36 (two variants on the same motif and legend). Also MEC 14 no. 75-82. The low weight would suggest yours is the real deal.</p><p>(Edit Two: ) Kudos to [USER=74712]@FitzNigel[/USER] for the MEC, and for pointing out the issue of variants, likely including other (Norman) authorities. The Norman series started out pretty much in complete chaos.</p><p>(Final edit: ) Yipes! This Is the thread I was yammering about! Doh....[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
