<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rrdenarius, post: 2605191, member: 75525&quot;]Great thread [USER=44316]@Valentinian[/USER] . Perspective is not always right on Roman coins. This is usually a ruler much larger than a defeated for or an Augustus larger than his children or Caesar.</p><p>I enjoy reading about coins I buy (before when on line or after when from a coin show). The two most researched I have posted often here - plumb bobs and die clashes. </p><p>One of the coins I most regret not winning looked like a die clash in the photos. I stopped bidding at about twice my max because I had the type. I was the second bidder and quickly sorry. Look for reversed letters in front of the chin.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]569344[/ATTACH]&nbsp; </p><p>I have since bought one that has a bit of a shadow, but in hand is not an obvious die clash - see what could be a C in front of the crown.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]569345[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]569346[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>PS - I found another plumb bob symbol, actually an A frame level for my wish list.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]569348[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
