    Re: Silver Roman

    This might me a good starting point for you in that Felicitas (Felicity) is represented on coins of the imperial series (particularly those of Hadrian, Antoninus Pius, and Philip I), under the figure of a woman, clothed in the stola, and exhibiting different figures and postures; sometimes standing, sometimes seated, generally she holds the caduceus in one hand, and the cornucopiae in the other: the former as the sign of peace, tha latter as signifying that true felicity consists in possessing the most precious gifts of providence. At other times Felicitas stands holding the caduceus on a staff in her right hand, and a patera in her left, at a lighted altar.

    Well done Sumo


    Why Waste time using an ordinary detector when you have the option to use a GPX4800.
