<p>[QUOTE="Robichari, post: 24863913, member: 128358"]Thank you very much, Curtis - it is indeed difficult to determine which exact RPC number corresponds, especially since the obverse is stamped off-center. I bet that it is more like rpc 7177 judging by the visible part of the legend on the obverse ΑΥΤΟΚΡΑ Λ. I just got another Commodus coin. The representation of the emperor is visibly different, here the paludamentum is visible. I found two more coins on the Internet (below in the photo) and the auction descriptions also indicated a problem with attribution. It seems that the RPC online section devoted to this type of Commodus coins is not entirely clear and the lack of photos also indicates this. Perhaps someone with a catalog of the Richard Mcalee collection could differentiate these types more precisely.</p><p><br /></p><p>Greetings, Robert</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1594868[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]1594869[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]1594870[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
