<p>[QUOTE="Curtisimo, post: 3911730, member: 83845"]That is a cool example. It certainly looks like a turban to me but I read while researching my OP coin that some of the top specialists in the field (like Metcalf and Bendall) think that it is just a (poorly rendered?) representation of a halo. I don't know enough about the arguments to have an opinion unfortunately. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie10" alt=":oops:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>This coin has very nice facial features intact. I don't know if fine style is the right word for it but I like it. It makes the features clearer and looks more like an actual person than most of the coins I have seen. Nice one![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
