<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2312643, member: 19463&quot;]I find interest in the missing O from the fake and the large one on Sallent&#039;s coin.&nbsp; It looks like there might be a trace of the o on the fake but the cutter tried too hard to make the o as tiny as it often is on genuine coins. Not just Alexanders but many Greek coins show us why the name of the litter was o-micron or little o.&nbsp;&nbsp; Note on this one below selected from the under $300 group how the o after P looks more like a period.&nbsp; This is perfectly normal. </p><p><img src="https://dfpfmltq984k.cloudfront.net/product_image/52/7/6/7BxFQjx8w4WJtJr92QNdb3SYdyX5G6.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>Below I have an AE Alexander which also has the dot o.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]466321[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Even 5 centuries later this Diocletian of Alexandria shows almost dot like omicrons at 9 o&#039;clock and 2 o&#039;clock.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]466325[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
