<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 1865503, member: 19463&quot;]As I understood it the Vota mules were later, after Constantine II died, increasing weight on the theory that, for some reason the mint had Urbs dies left over.&nbsp; Of course we don&#039;t know when the soldiers mules were made either.&nbsp; I could see the votas being issued after the mint knew they were switching to the FTR types at a future date but needed to turn out the old style coinage until then with whatever dies were available.&nbsp; They are considerable more scarce than the soldiers mules.&nbsp; I simply do not know.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
