Further proof, if indeed proof was actually needed, that the silver coins of Carausius with and without the reverse exergual mark RSR were made concurrently. I had been pondering whether they represented successive issues but it would appear not to be the case.

I spotted recently (October 2022) a silver laureate in the stock of UK dealer Silbury Coins that had a very distinctive die flaw on the obverse. The reverse of the specimen being MONETA AVG with no mark in the exergue.

The obverse die used to strike that coin was the same one that was used for an EXPECTATE VENI silver piece from my own collection that was marked RSR, albeit partially off the flan.
