<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DonnaML, post: 4094359, member: 110350&quot;]The top of the horse&#039;s head and the wreath are cut off of the obverse of this coin, and the horse&#039;s legs look weirdly stretched out. (Does anyone know what could cause that?)&nbsp; But I really liked the reverse (despite what look like gouges in the rider&#039;s leg), so I bought this coin even though it&#039;s certainly not &quot;perfect.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1065588[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>My catalog description: Tarentum, Calabria.
