Message:: [QUOTE="lehmansterms, post: 2743052, member: 80804"]If you type the names, titles and reverse legends over and over you'll actually develop a muscle-memory for typing the names and details, many of which repeat in piece after piece, relatively quickly. There are, of course, coin-management apps if you want to cheat - but after putting captions under a couple thousand photos in a website gallery, I find I can definitely type things like D N CONSTANTIVS P F AVG and FEL TEMP REPARATIO, GLORIA ROMANORVM or PROVIDENTIAE CAESS in my sleep. You'll quickly master TREBONIANVS GALLVS & ANTONINIANVS, CONSTANTINOPOLIS, or even the dread "AURELIANIANVS", a term for the ants created after Aurelian's reforms and before Diocletian's (~ 272 - 294) which, thankfully, virtually no one without some sort of an active OCD condition actually uses. (My apologies in advance to anyone who normally uses the term "Aurelianianus" or self-identifies as being OCD - I assure you no offense was meant - these terms were chosen for their illustrative value and not as any sort of criticism.)[/QUOTE]
