<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Clavdivs, post: 3298767, member: 93702&quot;]Hi [USER=99716]@Jochen[/USER] , wonderful coin and very interesting discovery. I have a question.. perhaps a very silly question but I am a new collector so perhaps you won&#039;t mind:</p><p><br /></p><p>When you state this:</p><p><b><i>We can suggest that the die cutter had a number of submittals which he used to cut his coins. When he needed the personification of a province he pulled out the depiction of HISPANIA without mentioning the rabbit which here was out of place.</i></b></p><p><br /></p><p>Is it understood that Mints received artworks, orders, specs, samples, etc. from a central agency or central Mint? This would obviously make sense as mints in remote areas of the Empire would need guidance for portraits, legends, probably production targets, etc.</p><p>I just wonder if any of this type of documentation (or references to this type of documentation) has survived?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
