<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2659041, member: 19463&quot;]The term I have seen applied to asses of this nature was &#039;Cast in Gaul&#039;.&nbsp; The odd part to me is many of them were types we might call special including Plautilla and &#039;better&#039; reverses.&nbsp; The lot I purchased recently included a duplicate of my Geta / Minerva feeding snake type.&nbsp; RIC 148 lists it as R and mentions that Cohen 111 lists a &#039;Cast in Gaul&#039;.&nbsp; I would really like to know the complete story on these coins.&nbsp; Has anyone seen one that is &#039;Struck in Rome&#039;?&nbsp; BMC 863 Plate 52, 8 is another cast but they say Paris has a real one.&nbsp; I just received a note from the BN in Paris saying it would be 4-5 years before they posted their Imperials.&nbsp; They now have a lot of Provincials up (895 Domnas).&nbsp; I will look forward to seeing their collection if it gets posted while I can appreciate it. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]589546[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
