[QUOTE="curtislclay, post: 4699639, member: 89514"]Isn't your Pax seated coin bimetallic, with red copper center and yellow brass rim? If so it is certainly medallic and might have been produced for distribution on 1 Jan. 224. I can't recall that I ever possessed such a coin, however, nor was I aware that the BM has one. Presumably acquired after 1962, since I don't find it in Robert Carson's BMC VI of that year? Your Liberalitas As, however, is from my collection; I bought it at Lanz's Hohenkubin middle bronze sale of 1974, but then let it go when I was hoping that my new collection too would end up in the BM, but they already have an EF specimen of the same coin from the same dies (BM 321, pl. 11).
