[QUOTE="TTerrier, post: 2966661, member: 76835"]There was a thread earlier today with a letter missing from a denarius of Severus Alexander. Rather than hi-jack that thread I thought it would be fun to see what sort of spelling mistakes we have out there. Let's ignore barbarous stuff with legends that are all gibberish and limit the coins to ones where we think they were trying to get it right but either couldn't spell or ran out of room and had to drop some letters. Here is one to start us off: [ATTACH=full]727169[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]727170[/ATTACH] Constantius II as Caesar 324 - 337 AD 2.26 g 18mm Laureate, draped & cuirassed bust right, FL IVL CONSTNTIVS NOB C (missing the A) Two soldiers holding spears and shields standing either side of two standards, GLOR IAEXER ITVS RFT in exergue Rome mint; Sear 17684 (Vol 5)[/QUOTE]
