<p>[QUOTE="ancient coin hunter, post: 3200645, member: 87200"]I am aware of the lead tesserae of Alexandria of the second century. I assume they were used as weights rather than as circulating coinage. The ones featuring Hadrian's lover Antinous can get rather pricey. I also didn't know that lead was an ingredient in the potin tetradrachms so thanks for that snippet of info.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
