Can anyone suggest where to start tracking down an RIC reference on this one? Or should it even have one? I have been to Helvetica, but probably don't know enough to use it properly. I have also looked other places over the last couple of days and have found nothing!

Match? The "...M CAES AVG" obverse and "IVLIA" reverse do seem to fit:

Here are some questions about variations in the coins. I am now working on an RPC ID number. My coin weighs 9.93 g and has a diameter max @ 24.5 mm. Also the leaves on my coin's wreath appear thicker than these. Is that just wear or is mine a different type?
I found 2 here:
http://www.wildwinds.com/coins/gree...ducta/t.html

The first is RPC 99, but in the text is identified as RPC 108. I don't understand...which one is it?

The second is RPC 108.

Mine is closer to the weight of RPC 108, but does weight really matter with these kinds of ancients?

The coin Bob found in the link is identified as RPC I 108, F. I found what the I means, but what does the F mean?

The leaves on my coin are closer to a match of this one, which is also listed as RPC 108. So I guess they are all RPC 108?

Thank you - that coin makes it appear that the broader leaves in the wreath look that way because of wear.

Very nice! Is it unusual for virtually the same die pattern to be found in 2 places?
