[QUOTE="rexesq, post: 1160975, member: 5739"][b]-~- Seen from the Front vs. Seen from Behind -~-[/b] Yeah, like randy said, different bust, you can see the one in the picture that your link goes to is fully draped and seen from behind or from the side as some say, whereas my example is only slightly draped on the far shoulder, and the chest is seen from the front.... also you can see the Emperor's closer shoulder is bare. The one in the link has the right titles as mine though, with the '...PARTHICO...' on the end of the obv titles instead of the beginning of the reverse, but still different bust type. Do you have links to the original vcoins listings? they may give these reference numbers, since they are pretty close, aside from the bust variation, but they could have the style of bust as mine.... this one I got was labelled as RIC 314 when I purchased it.... so.... ----------- *EDIT*take a look I made a collage showing mine with the one you linked to on wildwinds, and another PRO VID one with the same bust.... you can see the two on top from wildwinds have a fully draped bust, and you can see none of his chest, whereas mine, like the hadrian of the type(shown in the two obv pics below the first 'collage' pic), has the chest visible, and only a slight drapery on the far shoulder..... bad collage work but you get the idea....[/QUOTE]
