<p>[QUOTE="DonnaML, post: 8350718, member: 110350"]I agree that Roman Republican reverses -- apart from the "Dioscuri galloping in same direction" and "Victory in biga or quadriga" types -- tend to be more varied and interesting than Imperial reverses. There also tends to be much more to say about each type. (See all the lengthy write-ups I've posted for many of my 70+ Republican denarii.) On the other hand, Imperial portraits of the different emperors and empresses can be more interesting and artistic than yet another helmeted head of Roma. And there are so many thousands of different types that there are plenty of interesting reverses among them as well. So I like both![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
