<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lehmansterms, post: 3025726, member: 80804&quot;]Glen is correct here - and you will undoubtedly encounter other names and/or terminology that might now be - or in the past have been - considered &quot;Naughty&quot; - for example, the way the legend &quot;Q. TITI&quot; from a common Roman Republican denarius used to make some blush, too - it&#039;s just one of the things you need to consider. Latin (and Greek, for that matter) was enormously important in the development of English (among other modern Western languages) so consideration should be taken for the words&#039; values in the original languages, even if the same or a similar word persists into modern language. Even though &quot;as&quot; as a denomination can be confusing, depend on what you know of syntax (seeing &quot;as&quot; used as a noun rather than a preposition, for example) and keep in mind that &quot;as&quot; (typically not capitalized in cataloging, BTW) may well be the denomination if you&#039;re looking at bronze Roman Imperial coins up through the mid-late 3rd century AD.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
