<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Michael W. Bradley, post: 4832541, member: 114144&quot;]MIHI LIBERTAS NECESSIT-&quot;I must&nbsp; have Liberty&quot;. A line from my favorite film and my favorite filmscore by Bernard Herrmann: &quot;Mysterious Island&quot;. For me September is Bernard Herrmann month. I have a coin of &quot;Libertas&quot; on the Reverse and it is of course, Claudius II Gothicus. I apologize again for the quality of my photograph-still a work in progress. If one can tell (I hope) from the inscription, as best I can make out is something like: &quot;cojj&quot; something. That is to say looks like a weird type of squiggly &quot;j&quot; and it&#039;s repeated. I am very familiar with the Greek alphabet from research on the Wescott &amp; Hort and Septuagint texts and those characters don&#039;t appear to me to be Greek. I made a search of WWd&#039;s and found Greek inscriptions. This also begs the question to me, did the Romans ever mint coins besides Latin and Greek? Thanks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
