<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Curtisimo, post: 7805989, member: 83845&quot;]I appreciate the compliment and the same can definitely be said of your posts as well. I always enjoy seeing a new thread from you come up on the board because I know I’ll get to see great coins and learn something!</p><p><br /></p><p>Great Tryphon example and thank you for the in depth addition to the history of the type.&nbsp; I had not read the reasons for the reverse type laid out so clearly as your explanation.&nbsp; Thank you! I believe I also I read that the name Tryphon was meant “luxury” and implied that Tryphon was wealthy enough to compensate the soldiers properly.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Under-compensating horns or no this example is stunning and one of my favorites of yours.
