[QUOTE="Marsyas Mike, post: 3622253, member: 85693"]Digging this old post up because I just got another of these "British Association" AEs as described above. I wasn't really going for another one - it was an accidental eBay purchase - described as a "Sestertius" I could see a radiate crown and made a best offer that was taken. It is my only Antoninus Pius dupondius. It appears that Libertas was a popular type for Britain. I am a little unsure of it's attribution. The legends are fairly clear except at the end of the obverse, where XVII or XVIII is possible. This would be RIC 920 or 932. Both are listed in the article as "British Association" types.
