<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Robichari, post: 24780887, member: 128358&quot;]I am asking for help from experts in the silver coinage of Roman Antioch. I bought this coin: the tetradrachm of Nero of Antioch AD 63/64, AE23/24 mm.. Poor condition, but a coin with tradition and suitable for my financial capabilities. I wonder about its weight: 10.83 g. (normal weight near 14 g). I checked the cubic volume of coin and calculated the silver content to be approximately 70 percent. I also found two coins with a similar reduced? weight from the same year and type: <a href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=8985107" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=8985107" rel="nofollow">https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=8985107</a></p><p><a href="https://www.coinarchives.com/a/openlink.php?l=2222589|5383|1750|ff28428affca9e6247cdaf6c05060a0b" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.coinarchives.com/a/openlink.php?l=2222589|5383|1750|ff28428affca9e6247cdaf6c05060a0b" rel="nofollow">https://www.coinarchives.com/a/openlink.php?l=2222589|5383|1750|ff28428affca9e6247cdaf6c05060a0b</a></p><p>Hence my question: did some of Nero&#039;s tetradrachms have their weight reduced in AD 64?</p><p><br /></p><p>Greetings, Robert</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1585447[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]1585448[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
