And the eagle that looks like a worried turkey and the lightly double struck Melqart who looks as if he lost his dentures...</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1146112[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>I believe there is an issue in the same style struck under Caracalla, where Melqart takes on the features of the emperor.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
