Priscus Attalus
« on: September 21, 2020, 03:23:38 pm »
Dear members,

Im searching online photos for the multiple silver RIC X 1408. Do you know a link?In a second time i have a question. Im doubting: is this multiple still an ''24 siliquae''? I mean a ''multiple of 24 siliquae''. RIC X say there are a equivalent in silver of the solidi.. Is there any other source with the weight and size? Other thing: ''multiple or medaillon''?

You confirm it is a 24 Siliquae multiple? All descriptions are ''multiple silver''... i would like a more specific denomination.

76.55 gr / 24 = 3.19 gr. Near enough the weight of 1 siliqua coin.

Yes, but is the denomination name is correct: 24 siliquae multiple? Because everywhere it is only wrote ''silver multiple''.. In my database i wrote 24 siliquae multiple and i want to be sure it is not ''1 solidus silver'' or something like, that peoples use as name for this coin.
