<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Clavdivs, post: 4788941, member: 93702&quot;]Here is an interesting &quot;error&quot; on a coin of Nero:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1164069[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>You can see the &quot;SC&quot; is reversed... and well as an unusual starting point for the</p><p>legend.</p><p>The full reverse legend is: PACE P R VBIQ PARTA IANVM CLVSIT</p><p>You can see that CLVSIT (the last word of the legend) is at the 12 o&#039;clock position - so the start of the legend is at the 2 o&#039;clock position on this coin. I have not found another like it so far.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is a MUCH nicer coin (that I do NOT own) showing how the legend should line up:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1164076[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Turn my coins reverse over and it works...</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1164080[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Good evidence that one set of die cutters create the bust and devices - while another set of die cutters create the legends. Here one of them got it wrong...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
