[QUOTE="Steven Michael Gardner, post: 7886378, member: 97508"]Wow, thank you for doing that translation & summary... I have gleaned so much more from your passage of that long German paper that I ever could have accomplished myself--even in elglish, dyslexia tends to complicate things at times for me! As I am understanding it now, The Roman Senate had quite a bit of influence when concerning these coins, not directly but for the incorporation of the many foreign provincial environments, territories & peoples... The object as I see of such coins is to help mold outlying provinces to become more Roman? To behave in the more cultish worship / reverence for the Senate that many had, the closer one would reside to the mother ship of Rome & the Aura of the Senate itself..? Isn't everything behind what Rome did to convert others to their way of thinking, never heaven forbid the other way around! I assume now concerning my coin bust image, it is that of the younger "Genius Populi Romani" type, which is one more stone added on the road to a more definitive ID...?[/QUOTE]
