Message:: [QUOTE="Curtisimo, post: 8123570, member: 83845"]Very cool! I love coins, ancient history and Legos so I always enjoy your “fun with Legos” posts. Would it be possible to build only half of the dome behind the portico? Then you could see the inside from the back and you would have the complete facade on the portico side. I suppose even 12,500 Legos would still be an immense project. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie100" alt=":wideyed:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Here is a coin of Agrippa.[ATTACH=full]1414502[/ATTACH] Roman EmpireAugustus & AgrippaAE Dupondius, Nemausus mint, struck ca. 10 BC - 10 ADDia.: 26 mmWt.: 12.3 gObv.: IMP: Augustus, laureate bust right; Agrippa, bust left wearing rostral crownRev.: COL - NEM: Crocodile chained to palm treeRef.: RIC 158Ex JAZ Numismatics Here are some photos of the Pantheon from my last trip to Rome.
