[QUOTE="Gam3rBlake, post: 7715201, member: 115909"]But he was 31 when he died and he only looks about 18 max in the portrait so I was just curious whether it’s possible to help date when a coin was minted based on the age he looks in the portrait. NGC just gives a vague 177-192 date for when it was minted but I feel like we can narrow it down to 177-185 based on the fact that he doesn’t look anywhere near as old as he was towards the end of his reign.[/QUOTE]
