Ben Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 4208 Posts	Posted 05/23/2014 10:35 am A nice early instance of one of my favourite designs. Looks like the reverse die had been in service for longer than the obverse (they retired obverse dies earlier than they would a reverse dies it seemed, perhaps to ensure a good likeness of the emperor was always achieved) Report this Post to the Staff
