Good morning,
I just want to inform you that after many years I have decided to renew my website dedicated to the Antoninians of restitution of
Trajan Decius.
www.qblay.comIt is not an aesthetic renewal, but one of content.
Basically the changes have been:
Bibliography, references that I initially neglected and that I have now incorporated.
Starting with just over 1,000 registered coins, the goal was to reach 2,000 to see if the hypotheses held up. Now with almost 3,000 coins the estimates have been confirmed and allow us to
open new lines of research that I point out: volume estimation for issues close to the Divi, such as the Antoninians of
Decius or studies on the deterioration of the dies in the
mint.
To make the
software and methodology available to whoever needs it to begin studies on stamps and links. The
software is easy to adapt to any series, you can see how it has been
applied to the Double Sesterces of
Decius or
his Aureus. A couple of researchers have already asked me for it and I
hope it can be useful to them. In any case, you can count on my support for adaptations.
Featuring the largest linked die tree to date, with over 2,600 linked coins, including 95% of Divi series coins; with the conclusions that this implies. Especially about
officinae envolved, as
95% of the coins registered are die linked, I think that only one
officina was involved.
Include a page of
fake coins detected to date.
I
hope you like it and if you see anything that could improve it, tell me.
Greetings
Joaquim Blay
