<p>[QUOTE="FitzNigel, post: 2447093, member: 74712"]The portrait looks very similar, but I've had too much paleography pushed in my head to ignore the writing. Some of the letters look similar, but the very different 'o's makes me think two different people. Also the 'E's - the first coin has a long ligature at the top, whereas the second coin has a long ligature on the bottom. (Although I'll admit that carving dies and writing are two very different skills...)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
