<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TIF, post: 1892606, member: 56859&quot;]Thanks for the additional history!&nbsp;&nbsp; Such a beautiful coin and the cent comparison pictures really demonstrate the engraver&#039;s talent (and myopia).</p><p><br /></p><p>You changed your reflection template. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; I like the deep black background which provides better contrast-- less visual competition of matching gray tones within the coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>RE Aeschylos:&nbsp; did he really die of traumatic brain injury secondary to an eagle dropping a turtle on his head or is this just lore?</p><p style="text-align: center">[ATTACH=full]322738[/ATTACH]</p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p><p>Edited to add:&nbsp; Aeschylos probably died due to delayed care.&nbsp; His attending physician, Asklepios, took too long to find the correct ICD10 diagnosis code.&nbsp; Which, in case you ever experience such an emergency, is W59.22XA, &quot;Struck by a turtle, initial encounter&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>Not to be confused with code W59.21XA, &quot;<i>Bitten</i> by a turtle, initial encounter&quot; or W59.22XD, &quot;Struck by a turtle, <i>subsequent</i> encounter&quot;.&nbsp; Mutual of Athens will deny the claim if improperly coded.</p><p><br /></p><p>(I am not making this up.&nbsp; Well, at least not the codes...)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
