<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 1699383, member: 19463&quot;]I&#039;ll go the opposite way and ask why a culture that avoided using any of the propaganda or other side values of coinage even bothered to make the minor changes they did to the design.&nbsp; Coins in Persia were made as spenders not the multipurpose objects we see in some cultures.&nbsp; Coins with reverses would be harder to make and people like money that they know and trust.&nbsp; A fair question might be, &quot;Why bother?&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
