There seems to be some inscription below the exergue, but I can't even tell what alphabet it is. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

Though if that round spot in the center of the centaur back is a dimple and there is another one on the other side in the same position. It would indicate a possible Roman provincial coin and we would have a place to start looking. Report this Post to the Staff
