<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GinoLR, post: 8181546, member: 128351&quot;]Rhinos... On Roman coins there is only one rhino-type yes, showing the African rhinoceros displayed in the Colosseum during lavish games organized by Domitian. It is on different kinds of quadrans, most of them with the name of Domitian and one w/o date but with a laurel-branch on the reverse. It was imitated under Trajan on small coins from Alexandria dated LIZ. But there is also another completely different rhino in ancient numismatics, on an Indian gold coin of the 5th c. AD, extremely rare. Here is the example from the British Museum :</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1430447[/ATTACH] </p><p><a href="https://www.britishmuseum.org/collection/object/C_1955-0407-1" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.britishmuseum.org/collection/object/C_1955-0407-1" rel="nofollow">https://www.britishmuseum.org/collection/object/C_1955-0407-1</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
