<p>[QUOTE="HandsomeToad, post: 432570, member: 12965"]I also see 3 chins but it's hard to make out the 3rd nose so I don't know if an expert on these would qualify it or not? I've been discussing it with a semi expert and he won't go more than 2 strikes, even though the other R in AUCTORI is well out of place and he's also concerned my 4th N is just the E, but I can clearly see it in hand, with the E just below it. There is so much I can see in hand that I cannot get to show up in pics. I've tried about everything I could think of to get everything to show but some is so weak it just blends in. However, given there are 2 N's stacked on one another (2nd N) with no N above the 1st N, it stands to reason the missing N has to be somewhere. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> And with the N's so far off and so well squished, I think they were the intial strike that ended up being overstruck and the 2nd striking was sufficiently off from the 1st, that they had to strike it one or two more times, to try and obliterate the original strike, which then created the double/triple profile. At least, it looks that way to me. :kewl:</p><p> </p><p>Ribbit <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
