<p>[QUOTE="zumbly, post: 2210078, member: 57495"]Thanks! There's a fairly recent book that explores the Rain Miracle (<i>Marcus Aurelius' Rain Miracle and the Marcomannic Wars</i>, Peter Kovács, 2009), but it's a little too pricey for me. A <a href="http://bmcr.brynmawr.edu/2009/2009-09-15.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://bmcr.brynmawr.edu/2009/2009-09-15.html" rel="nofollow">review of it</a> does briefly mentions that the book contains a chapter on the RELIG AVG coins and that the author apparently makes a strong case that none of the coins can be linked to the Rain Miracle. As far as I'm concerned, where there's doubt, there's room for my belief in the more colourful version <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
