Rodolfo Martini states in The Pangerl Collection Catalog and Commentary on the Countermarked Roman Imperial Coins that these two countermarks (Pangerl 83 and 90) are closely linked, "like the most important countermarks from the Moesia-Thrace area and must be dated to the Flavian period rather than the Tiberian era."
