Dearborn Moderator United States 95936 Posts	Posted 02/16/2026 2:45 pm so, ok, what is a 'nimbus '? and since this coin does not have one, where would it be located at Collecting since 1972.

tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 7940 Posts	Posted 02/16/2026 2:46 pm In American English we call it a halo. If you go to the top of page 3, or the bottom of page 6, you'll see the more usual 18th century representation of Paul with his halo. But those were coins from "the provinces" so maybe they were a bit more cavalier about such things in Rome? Edited by tdziemia 02/16/2026 2:54 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Bacchus2 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2875 Posts	Posted 02/21/2026 02:31 am A new add. A bit worn but I got it for pennies and it must have had a interesting life. Clement XII ND (1735) 1 Giulio. The legend "ABVNDET IN GLORIAM DEI" (May it abound to the glory of God) is a biblical reference from 2 Corinthians 4:15.

Thanks for explaining the inscription. We probably could have a thread just on biblical quotes. The popes don't have a lock on that; the Spanish and Habsburg royals also used them liberally.
