<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Eyestrain, post: 1184255, member: 24213&quot;]I enjoy keeping an eye out for prop coins in period movies. I haven&#039;t seen The Man Who Would Be King in years, so I&#039;ll have to revisit it and watch out for that scene. It&#039;s rare we get such a closeup. Usually I have to criticize the prop coins from a distance, as in &quot;Those are too big/too flat/too round.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>From the same episode of Rome you mentioned, here&#039;s a closeup of the denarii from the gambling scene (which leads directly into why a doctor needs to be summoned). Note there are only three or four different designs, none of them real. But at least they look reasonably Republican for the few seconds they&#039;re on screen.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]123987.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
