<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2484768, member: 19463&quot;]The problem with that in my view is the way it places two coins of the same city issued the same year in different categories because one had Nero on the obverse while the other had Zeus.&nbsp; What might we call the quadrantes of Domitian etc. that show a god and an animal?&nbsp; Perhaps they are saved by the SC and allowed in Roman.&nbsp; Similarly what do we do with coins of Italian towns of 300 BC?&nbsp; Does it matter that one of those towns was called Rome?&nbsp; The earliest Roman silvers certainly qualify as parallel to staters of the neighbors but none of us keep them in our Greek city box.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
