Re: Roman coins? Pictures

Really?!?!?!? I've been saying Greek sence my first post!

You made the above angry looking statement - Why? Whats the issue here?
The statement didn't reflect your first post, which is why I quoted it to you.
Then more angry looking faces, are you having a bad day at work?

OK, that explains it, I wasn't trying to wind you up, I just found it strange that you were angry about

No worries, you were right & many agreed so no harm done.

On the plus side these are about 300 years older than most roman coins but I have no interest in researching them as I don't dig them over here, yet

Mackaydon hit the nail on the head. Herakles with goats on the reverse, I couldn't find an exact match though. I 'd be willing to guess the next one down is Poseidon, notice the trident on the back.

so the Greeks personified their gods into their coinage?

Thats what most of their coinage was based on, there are real people on the coins as well ie. Alexander the Great
