[QUOTE="zumbly, post: 3343577, member: 57495"]I like it as well! I've often wondered if the reverse copies a lost piece of statuary or painting. On many examples, it's frustratingly hard to determine if there's anything there at all, but on others, there's clearly "something"... as to what, I like your suggestion that it may be something more meaningful than just grass. The coins below are not mine, but they show the detail clearer. Indeterminate object - spring? [ATTACH=full]885449[/ATTACH] Grass or spring? [ATTACH=full]885450[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
