<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 3015302, member: 19463&quot;]Perfect coins may be beautiful and bring rewards in the marketplace but these really awful ones are much more educational when it comes to technical features of mint operation.&nbsp; Ken&#039;s Tetricus is terrible and wonderful at the same time.&nbsp; It gives a 3D view of the shape of the die that struck it and shows without doubt that the obverse was on the punch die while the reverse was on the flat anvil.&nbsp; This is the opposite of the common practice of earlier periods and explains why we find reverse brockages of the Tetricus period since coins got stuck in the obverse punch and went unnoticed when the next coin was struck. This Comes Avg&nbsp; is a reverse type used by Victorinus.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]748565[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
