[QUOTE="Herberto, post: 2275789, member: 74222"]I have some as well (of course). My infant Constantine VII has both his eyes visible and Zoe does have her right one. I wanted some persons on my coins with two X chromosomes(women). I already had Sophia during Justin II’s reign but I also wanted one woman from the second part of Byzantium history, so thus this coin from the fantastic Macedonian Dynasty: [ATTACH=full]454059[/ATTACH] My Romanos Lecapenus here, well graded but not as nice as Arnoldoe’s: [ATTACH=full]454060[/ATTACH] And a Cherson minted one here apparently minted during the reign of Romanus I or one of his son. Sear 1764. I bought that for 8 pund. It is low graded, but I don’t want to pay 50Euro just for a coin with “P” and “W”.
