Very Nice Coins!
 

Hi,

Great post!

We have not yet had a republic silver!

The bronze Roman Coin is a variation of this coin:

Siscia
RIC VII 8,A Licinius AE Follis. IMP LIC LICINIVS PF AVG, laureate head right / IOVI CON-SERVATORI, Jupiter standing left with victory & sceptre, eagle at foot with wreath in its beak, A to right, SIS in ex. RIC VII 8; Sear 15211.

Most of these broke in use because of pre-existing flaws in the stone. I bet he went blue in the face when it happened. A lot of effort went into making it.

Referring to a specialist for stone artefacts in our local museum i talked to, most of the axes with hole were only used to represent wealth of the owner because of the problem with breaking at the thin part. Many of the axes are too big to use or made from nice looking but not usable stone. I can only speak to the ones found here, UK can be different for sure!
