<p>[QUOTE="kevin McGonigal, post: 3463431, member: 72790"]Thanks for that comparison. Can you tell me what it is about the coin from Laodicia that a collector should look for that makes it likely to be from that mint? It does appear to me that the one I have posted, apparently from Rome, is on a dumpy, thick flan whereas the one from Laodicia appears to be a thinner, flatter and more rounded flan. Also this one seems to give Julia a crescent shaped wisp of hair in front of her ear. Is that something significant?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
