<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Trebellianus, post: 3021856, member: 91569&quot;]Thank you everybody for your contributions! Some very pleasing coins and some highly learned commentary.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Much wisdom here, for which I thank you kindly. I feel strangely vulgar for assuming the <i>triratna</i> symbol was a mint mark! The die scuptors&#039; eyes were cast heavenwards more than mine were, clearly. Definitely, in general, the apparently easy-going religious heterodoxy of these emissions is very pleasing.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I fear this might be beyond my abilities -- I&#039;m somewhat illiterate, technologically (feel free to elaborate on the method here if you like). Pastebin can apparently accommodate the script so <a href="https://pastebin.com/Ju5iHYqJ" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://pastebin.com/Ju5iHYqJ" rel="nofollow">I&#039;ve uploaded it here in text form</a>, if that&#039;s any use. And two very pleasing Menanders! I&#039;ll get around to uploading a few images to Wikipedia eventually: with how much it&#039;s referenced, I rather like the idea of one of my contributions becoming the &quot;definitive&quot; version of something.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Beautiful! That inscription is fantastic (and the ornament at groin level is rather phallic, no?) Wish I had anything at all to add regarding the club, which is tantalising.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for weighing in! I was rather unsure on these two myself: rendering them as <i>rua </i>and <i>sua</i> seemed to produce better results (going <i>v</i> -&gt; <i>u</i>, i.e.), but I have no justification for doing that whatsoever, it was the result of pure trial-and-error.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
