Topcat7 Pillar of the Community 1121 Posts	Posted 08/14/2015 7:03 pm @Arnoldoe: - I think that you're absolutely on the right track. Because I can (now) see an 'A' at the end of a line of writing on the reverse (within the wreath), and a 'D' at the end of a second line, I am inclined to go with RPC 108 rather than RPC 129 that has a different legend. You guys are awesome. I study the coin and the 'references' for hours and I get no-where, and when I put it up, literally within minutes someone narrows it down. Thanks A.D. I can now move on.

Athalbert Pillar of the Community Spain 629 Posts	Posted 08/15/2015 06:49 am Well, it must be a "IVLIA TRADVCTA", but it can be also a "COLONIA PATRICIA"... http://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=1996993 They are very similar coins, probably made by the same sculptor at the same epoch in two different cities of southern Spain. I think that is a "IVLIA TRADVCTA" Report this Post to the Staff
