<p>[QUOTE=&quot;zumbly, post: 1853994, member: 57495&quot;]Thanks!&nbsp; I was a little surprised by the use of the term boukranion myself, but without the benefit of further research or the reference quoted (SNG Cop), I was deferring to CNG&#039;s cataloger and, as mentioned, using their attribution in that post.&nbsp; Curiously, they have a few other examples in their past auction catalogs and those use the term &quot;head of a bull&quot; or &quot;bull&#039;s head&quot;.&nbsp; So far, what I&#039;ve read of bucranium/boukranion has always been in reference to a bull&#039;s skull as opposed to a bull&#039;s head, and it&#039;s true that the one on this coin looks distinctly alive.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
