Looking at the FORT RED TR P III COS II denarius of Geta, do you think the flan was clipped before or after the coin was minted? If before, it would seem to be that it would be done to fix the weight of the coin as to provide the correct silver content. If after, it would seem that the person doing it could have lost his head if he was found out! What do you think?

I don't think clipping went on either before or after striking. All I see are normal flan irregularities that are caused on the edges when a flan is compressed between the obverse and reverse dies.

Q,

Awesome additions to your gallery. And some great x-mas presents.

This coin not clipped? I hope you are joking!!!

Edit: Sorry for my rude wording.

A pic of the edge would settle it. If it is clipped, that part should look very different from the rest. I doubt if it is, especially since Curtis says not.

Hi all
Sorry to the late reply ..
I put the denarius under the stereo microscope and the edge are looking normal, if it is clipped it is clipped before the striking ....

Alright Q thank you for settling it, I was growing more curious every hour

Very fond of the Hungarian additions! I have a weakness for those old denars, but the Istvan completely blew me away! What an amazing coin Q!

I was wondering about the second-to-last coin, the Probux Pax antoninianus - The exergue has XXI S, but it's 4th officina? A great coin with very attractive centering in any case!

Hi Chris..

Thank you your nice words..

You are right the Probus are 2nd officina, it was my mistake ( copy paste... mistake..grrr..)

Thanks a lot..
