Anyone interested in these coins please don't hesitate to contact me.
I have registered more than 800 pictures of these coins. Building a die link.
I'll apreciate any exchange of information and/or pictures.

By the way. Do you know if pictures on catalogue will be able soon?
Regards

Hello Joaquim!
This is really a very interesting subject. Part of the idea of CoinsCatalog is exactly the same – to give the numismatist the ability to check for as many as possible dies we have in the database. We have so far about 40 000 images and we work on a system that will allow us to upload them fast. You can get the idea if check in the database for Augustus #2001 (http://coinscatalog.com/coin_view.php?id_catalog_int=40012001). If you click on the image (http://coinscatalog.com/showpic.php?id_catalog_int=40012001) you will be able to see more than one image for the same type. After we are done with uploading the pictures the system will stay open and will allow collectors to add more images for coins with other die varieties.
If you are interested we can make a special section similar to the Coin Forgeries for the DIVI series. Your name will be under the pictures you contribute together with your link, plus your name will be noticed as the author of the section. If you want it will be a great to have the text in both Spanish and English or if it will be easier to you do it in Spanish and we will try to translate it in English.
The numismatic hobby give us great opportunity for research and the more we publicize the better. May be it will not be perfect the first time, but it is better to do it and make it better later.
We will be glad to help with space and advertisement so your knowledge, ideas and effort could reach more people.
Let us know what we can do to help you make your idea reality.
Have a great day Joaquim!
