Is there any significance in the anonymous
quadrans series as to the placement of SC on the
reverse? For non-anonymous quadrans/semis, during the
flavian period the preference was to put SC in the
field. Later periods, like
Hadrian and AP, the preference was usually SC in
exergue. Is this just a coincidence? If this is actually fairly generalized, can this be used to roughly assign some chronology to the anonymous series where both placements of SC occur?
