[QUOTE="Julius Germanicus, post: 2598750, member: 80783"]David Sear just wrote me and suggested that my coin might be either heavily tooled or a cast fake and offered to research it further if I send it in. If it were a cast I would wonder what coin it should be made after, considering it is a double die match with the unique and only recently discovered Sestertius of that type which is less complete than my coin. Also I wonder if any examples of the As with Pudicitia standing (RIC 51 / Sear 10689) are published anywhere or if those are as obscure as the Sestertius variant discussed here. Or is it really the same item and was described as an As in the older literature due to it´s low weight? In any case, I must say a big thank you to Curtis Clay and David Sear for taking the time to send me their suggestions. I do not have any other hobby where the authorities in the field are so accessible and helpful :)[/QUOTE]
