Title
Roman coin: As of Claudius I (obverse and reverse)
Description
English: A copper-alloy Roman as of Claudius I (AD 41-54), contemporary copy, dating to the period c.AD 41-54 (Reece period 2). S C reverse type depicting Minerva advancing right holding shield and spear. Unclear mint prototype.

Robert Kenyon, following on from the work by the French scholars P-A. Besombes and M. Bompaire (in Trésors Monétaires XXI, 2005), is working through the British examples of Claudian coinage recorded through the PAS assigning many so-called Claudian contemporary copies to Roman auxiliary mints which operated at Lyons (Gaul) and in Spain. This example is possibly a native contemporary copy.
