Nailed image

[Emperor Oli 0]

Just reading a thread on CU about images people "nailed", i.e. they were as close to the true look of a coin as possible. The first image of this coin I thought was quite something! The toning isn't particularly to my taste in the second view of it, but the cameo effect is amazing.

Both are beautiful but likewise I like the first better. I did not try to look up but I assume the engraver

was Pingo? Actually I don't even know what denomination this is.

Looks like a penny?

Kuchler was the designer of this series. Definately much better workmanship than Lewis Pingo ever had to offer. Not that i don't like Lewis Pingo you understand!

Thomas Pingo was much better.
