The BM sestertius and As, pl. 30, 920 and 924, show a large hand as on your denarius.
In the new edition of RIC that I am preparing for 193-238, your coin will not get a separate number!
So in other words, it will be the same reference number (ie, the same issue and
mint) but just from a different set of dies.
By the way, is the new
RIC version just going to be a newly updated edition of the old
RIC (ie, for this coin it would be in the 2
part RIC IV volume), or will it be a totally different book with completely different plates throughout?
Should I stave off
buying RIC IV to cover my
Severan needs not addressed in my
RSC III copy until the new edition
comes out, or will the two
RIC editions/publications be intended to complement each other as opposed to being a replacement edition?
