[QUOTE="John Anthony, post: 2037543, member: 42773"]Well, a quick glance through Wildwinds shows that all of the inscriptions are reversed from the way RIC catalogs them. [URL='http://www.wildwinds.com/coins/ric/augustus/RIC_0463.jpg']Here[/URL] is your coin, attributed as RIC 463. So I guess if you want to use the latest edition of RIC, you just realize it's a misprint. The obverse legends go with the reverse devices and vice versa. OK...I learned something here, but it's not the first time we've discovered mistakes in RIC. Still, I was rather hoping your coin was something special. Well...it is something special of course, but I was hoping it was more special...than it already is...of course. Eh, you know what I mean. Merry Christmas! :D[/QUOTE]
