<p>[QUOTE="Carausius, post: 3525141, member: 76440"]The later issue, by C. Calpurnius Piso, is finer style overall, with high relief obverses, and it was much more carefully produced. The reverse dies for the later issue were generally convex, producing the characteristic cupping of the reverse on these coins. This helped push metal into the high relief obverse dies. The results are quite impressive in hand.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
