<p>[QUOTE=&quot;red_spork, post: 3106097, member: 74282&quot;]The Romans did not have modern metallurgical techniques or materials analysis equipment and the referenced post clearly states that these are averages and there will be differences. Some variation in purity and in the ratios of various trace elements is expected especially when you consider that there were several sources of bullion including mines, melting of old Roman coins and bullion captured from enemies. We even see coins from time to time that have alloy mixing issues.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
