    Space shuttle, now.

    Or anythng that could be (mis-) interpreted as an "anachronism" on an ancient coin.

    Oh, sorry. Missed that part earlier. :oops:

    Here - to atone for the flub, I'll retroactively post a non-Mexican snake (though it's hard to see on this coin.)


    [​IMG]

    CRISPINA AE sestertius. Struck at Rome, 180-183 AD. CRISPINA AVG IMP COMMODI AVG, draped bust right. Reverse - SALVS S-C, Salus seated left, feeding serpent coiled around altar from patera held in right hand.

    Now... back to the present theme.

    A space shuttle, or any funny "anachronism" on an ancient coin.

    (Yes, feel free to be imaginative with that one. Run with it.)

    Brazil die attrition error (a type of cud error)
    Brazil Cud Die Attrition Error.jpg
    Firstly, the collar was positioned wrongly and it sheared-off a crescent portion of the obverse die. Then, the collar was exchanged or repositioned properly and continued to strike coins with this "weird" cud.

    Next theme is person wearing glasses.

    Stork I deliver

    Here we go, this was the medal I was looking for. The glasses are subtle given the profile view...

    Love the delivery forceps on the reverse. How about a doctor next (doesn't have to be an ob/gyn though).
