I may not collect these, but I have admired them for some time. Really nice set, Nate. Out of curiosity, is there a particular reason that the obverses of the two center coins at left (I'm guessing Nahapana and Yajna Sri Satakarni...how far off am I?) are oriented sideways? Are you trying to illustrate die axis of front to back - or is just arbitrary? Report this Post to the Staff
Ancientnoob Pillar of the Community United States 5155 Posts	Posted 05/14/2016 6:58 pm Boblgases, great question. The images compression does little to benefit the illustration but the Nahapana coins that are rotated are actually overstrikes, made on Nahapana's coins after his defeat by Guatamiputra Satakarni. Yajna Sri Satakarni is actually the king illustrated in the coin third from the bottom on the right. Report this Post to the Staff
