[QUOTE="Gil-galad, post: 3240152, member: 44154"]I have read both of your sites and know all about this information which is really useful and well done. In the case of this keyboard, you can select whatever font you like directly from the browser you use. Times New Roman is best for Latin and that font can be used. The other scripts require other fonts like Segoe UI Historic, Alphabetum, Unifont and Everson Mono. The full modern Latin alphabet is used for maximum compatibility for letters and die variations. If it's not useful for Roman Imperial, there are letters on Roman Provincial coinage that can be used. Old Italic is what this alphabet is called for Oscan, Old Latin, etc. It apparently is a cache all name for those ancient Italian scripts. [url]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Italic_script[/url] ------------------------- I also added all your site links that I know about for ancient coins on this links page.
