<p>[QUOTE="Theodosius, post: 2943984, member: 77077"]The influence may have been that Roman celators knew about, owned or had access to examples of earlier Greek coins that they used for inspiration. They did not have to be Greeks to admire the Greek designs from 100 years or more before. One thing most craftsman and artists do is study the works of others, especially the works of the great craftsman and artists who came before them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
