<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Macromius, post: 3043510, member: 90772&quot;]We have elephant and owl themed threads, so why not a &quot;Chin&quot; coin one? Maybe I&#039;m a little crazy but I like coin portraits depicting people with strong chins. Ptolemy I, Maximinus I, or any others you might have. Other strong or unusual features welcome. Cheers!</p><p><br /></p><p>Imperial Rome. Maximinus I, AE Sestertius (19.07 g, 30 mm).&nbsp; Rome. Laureate, draped and cuirassed bust right. / FIDES MILITVM SC, Fides standing , holding two standards (C.13; RIC.78).</p><p><br /></p><p>Maximinus Thrax was supposedly 8 feet 6 inches tall and could throw a small horse at you if he wanted to. Probably an exaggeration but who knows? It has been suggested that he suffered from Acromegaly. Think Rondo Hatton, Lurch, Jaws from the James Bond films, and The Hulk all combined into one.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]760044[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]760047[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
