<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DonnaML, post: 8277400, member: 110350&quot;]Thanks; I&#039;ll seriously consider it.&nbsp; I&#039;ve never been in touch with Clare Rowan before, although I do have her book, and do know (through a number of emails) Liv Mariah Yarrow, the author of a companion book in the same series.</p><p><br /></p><p>Too bad that there&#039;s no provenance attached to the tessera. &quot;Private British collection&quot; isn&#039;t very helpful. Although I do wonder, given that most of the other Roman Alexandrian materials in the Naville auction were ex. Dattari Collection (presumably indirectly, from someone who bought a large number of Dattari coins at some point), whether this one originally came from Dattari as well. Note the statement in Emmett&#039;s preface at p. viii that in addition to the more than 400 tesserae and anonymous bronzes he does list, &quot;Approximately 300 additional lead tokens in the recent Dattari supplement volume could not be included, because the coin types are nearly impossible to identify correctly due to the poor quality of the coins and coin plates.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, does anyone know if RPC even includes tesserae and similar Roman Provincial exonumia? If not, I won&#039;t bother writing to them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
