<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DonnaML, post: 4498880, member: 110350&quot;]Speaking of hump vs. humps, one issue I forgot to mention about my coin is the mystery of why this type depicts a two-humped Bactrian camel -- native to Central Asia and not found in Arabia -- rather than the one-humped dromedary camel&nbsp; that&#039;s actually found in Arabia.&nbsp; (The one-humped dromedary is the kind shown on the other type of Trajan coin shown in this thread, the one depicting the personification of Arabia with a small dromedary.) Is it possible that my type of coin was designed by someone in Rome who didn&#039;t know the difference? It&#039;s hard to believe that anyone actually living in Arabia Bostra would have made that mistake.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
