<p>[QUOTE="John Anthony, post: 2207973, member: 42773"]Well, silver-plated base metal is the definition of fouree, so yes, you're going to see the base metal where the plating is worn off. As far as the hairstyle goes, it's common on the DIVA FAVSTINA denarii. It was in fact a common hairstyle all around - some curled locks or an ornament at the the top of the head with plaited braids along the sides and back. The Roman version of cornrows.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
