I was thrilled to find how much the Thornvaldsen Museum has digitized, especially their gems. To that end here’s a nice illustration of the same subject as this obverse design from RRC 399/1:
In the past week I’ve let go a draft of a chapter to my editor. A long overdue step. I became very anxious about the Minucii and their column on which I’ve written many thousands of words that I no longer believe the more I look at the coins.
