I was thrown here by "<b>Rosette </b>diademed" as I cannot see any rosettes on these particular coins from Antioch. I have now looked at similar busts from other mints too and can see that this bust type seems to be a diadem in the form of a ladder with alternating laurel leaves and a square on which there is a rosette. </p><p><br /></p><p>Now if the diadem had looked like this then I could see the rosettes....</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]785191[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>I will have more bust description questions coming soon.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
