<p>[QUOTE=&quot;philologus_1, post: 26296945, member: 92212&quot;]I&#039;m <i>fairly</i> sure I know the answer, but admittedly it&#039;s just my best educated guess.&nbsp; A conclusive/scientific answer would require a massive amount of data well beyond what I have, or that I could process even if I had it. </p><p><br /></p><p>Please don&#039;t nail me on terms or semantics. (Pun intended.) I know about the Staurogram, which for my intents and purposes is a Tau-Rho.&nbsp; I know about the Iota-Chi, which so very rarely appears on coins that it wouldn&#039;t be in the running for #1.&nbsp; I know about the Patriarchal Cross with two horizontal bars, which also appears so infrequently that it wouldn&#039;t be in the running for #1.&nbsp; Etc.&nbsp; Oh! And I know about the terms Christogram and Chrismon.&nbsp; Enough caveats? ;-)</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ll post my answer at the end of the 7-day poll, and will not allow the poll results to deter me from revealing the answer I now presume to be true - no matter how far wrong the poll proves me to have been. :-o&nbsp;&nbsp; Warning: Sorry, once you vote, you can&#039;t change it.&nbsp; At the end of the 7-day poll I will post which emblem received the most votes, but until then you have to vote to be able to see which emblem is winning. :-D</p><p><br /></p><p>OK, enough from me. What do you all think? Based on YOUR knowledge and experience combined, which of the 4 listed basic emblems seems most prevalent on Roman coins during the stated time period?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
