<p>[QUOTE="H8_modern, post: 2644127, member: 28531"]This arrived from CNG today and the area around Vespasian's face has been messed with. Smoothing or tooling or wire brush but I'm not too happy with it. Nothing was noted and it was more subdued in their pics. I'm not sure if I want to keep it and I'm not sure how much to be annoyed with them. I'd like to hear the thoughts of the group on this one.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1169.photobucket.com/albums/r515/12volt-man/Mobile%20Uploads/2017-02/4DBEB1F5-A3D1-4842-895E-FBE8F2B21F5A_zpsfyn3dxw7.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="http://i1169.photobucket.com/albums/r515/12volt-man/Mobile%20Uploads/2017-02/E7A772FA-0788-4A15-8CF9-4F264A6E3BEF_zps2oyfjz9q.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="http://i1169.photobucket.com/albums/r515/12volt-man/Mobile%20Uploads/2017-02/C8B63521-DD5A-4869-B901-0AAE8D96970C_zpsl9rfyrdk.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="http://i1169.photobucket.com/albums/r515/12volt-man/Mobile%20Uploads/2017-02/4216D914-9157-4F42-B50B-068BF1FE5A95_zpswoh7gmxc.jpeg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><b>Vespasian. </b>AD 69-79.
