<p>[QUOTE="robinjojo, post: 4683210, member: 110226"]I'm just looking at the gorgoneion's tongue. The end appears to be protruding over the field of the flan, which seems, from the image's angle, to be perfectly flat. How could that be done? Wouldn't it be expected that the underside of the tongue would have raised metal, since on striking the die would force the metal up? Am I missing something?</p><p><br /></p><p>I am not familiar with this issue, so I'm probably just mindlessly speculating.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
