<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 4125568, member: 19463&quot;]If you require an SC to qualify as an Imperial bronze, this as is as Imperial as you can get. You can see it is an as due to the red copper under the green just as the OP coin is a dupondius from the yellow brass.&nbsp; Rules like radiate crowns did not spring fully formed from the beginning of coinage but developed over time.&nbsp; I would classify the OP coin as Imperial more from the use of titles in the reverse legend and not be concerned by the lack of SC.&nbsp; The real question is whether the coin was made to circulate only in the mint city or generally through the empire.&nbsp; I believe listing it in both places is a good idea.&nbsp; Footnotes can explain duplication but omissions are a greater problem and harder to fix. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]1068938[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
