<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Anthony, post: 2151454, member: 42773&quot;]There&#039;s a famous bust of Ptolemy I at the Louvre, and he certainly did have a Greek nose, but the portraits on the coins seem very stylized to me. They have the look of Hellenistic macho-jock-head renditions of Hercules. That&#039;s just my opinion - a lot depends on individual engraving styles, but at least on certain coins, I feel like the portrait should be described as, &quot;Ptolemy as Hercules.&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
