    @Collect89 said "flying horse", so we can continue either theme: mythological beasties OR flying horses.

    How about "ladies in diaphanous drapery" next.

    PS- @Johndoe2000$ - I too use an Amazon Fire tablet (when I'm not at work, on a real desktop computer), so I feel your pain all too well.

    Just makes me wonder... has anyone ever started a "Is my 1944 Belgium copper 2 Francs real?"

    Just kidding... :angelic:

    Okay, back on topic... Winged Victory or Angel
     
  19. lordmarcovan

    Victory.

    Next: a space shuttle.

    I hear what you're saying.

    "But LordM, where is there a space shuttle on that Nero coin?"

    Right there on the reverse.

    See it blasting off there, about to whack that lady in the back of the head?

    Betcha didn't know the Romans had a space program in 64 AD, didja? ;)

    That coin belongs to @Aethelred now, but since I ended up with his MS Aethelred II penny, that's OK.

    Ha! Excellent! Took me a sec.

    He said "angle", but didn't specify acute or obtuse, and I didn't have a protractor handy, so I went with "Victory". ;)
