I agree.

The engraver needs some anatomy lessons though!

Happy to share with you my new acquisition. A beautiful follis of Constantius Chlorus. Still figuring out the attribution but I love the portrait! Attribution depends whether there was a star in the some what rough right field…

Thanks Doug. I got it in a group of CNG coins and was initially going to sell it; but after I looked at it closely, I decided to keep it.
