<p>[QUOTE="Curtisimo, post: 3138943, member: 83845"]Thanks [USER=80147]@Ancient Aussie[/USER] ! I never get tired of seeing your architecture coins. That's really neat that it shows the altar inside the temple. I always thought of the altar as being out in front of the temple and the cult statue being inside. I wonder if sometimes the sacrifices could be done on the portico? Either way, cool coin!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Nice coin [USER=10461]@lordmarcovan[/USER] . Don't feel bad mine is clipped too. It doesn't bother me at all though. I like how the toning on your example brings out the devices as you say. The great thing about the coins of Khusro II is that they are common enough that they make for a cheap education in what is important to you on this type of coin. I think mine was a great value despite a few flaws... yours is even better.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks [USER=89687]@ominus1[/USER] !</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I appreciate the kind word [USER=95174]@BenSi[/USER] <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
