Curtis Clay 06.12.2007:
"I would consider all of the dupondii shown to be provincial imitations.
None of them has the finer style of Rome, nor the style of the three largest branch-mint series, which may have been struck in northern Italy, Gaul, and Spain respectively.
No coins comparable to the ones shown are in von Kaenel, since he included only what he considered to be official coins, not provincial imitations.
It is however possible that some of the bronze coins of Claudius now considered to be provincial imitations were actually struck by authorized branch mints which just employed unskillful engravers!"
