<p>[QUOTE="non_cents, post: 2862780, member: 30970"]One of the reverses of the example coins matches spot-on to mine (from the Munzkabinett Wein collection) but does not have the same obverse, but a different coin (the first American Numismatic Society example) shares a similar obverse based on a noticable part of the lion's design, that is not present on any of the other examples: [ATTACH=full]682330[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>I'm only really familiar with more modern minting techniques...did ancient coins have something similar to "die pairings"? Could the obverse and reverse designs of 2 different coins also appear on the same coin? Or is the "example" list on PELLA incomplete and simply missing a picture of a coin that shares the same obverse/reverse designs as my coin?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
