Alright, sounds fine then :) I know many authentic coins can seem cast, especially on pictures. When you have them in hand they usually seem fine.
That aside, I’ve always really liked tetrarchy-coins. There’s just something about the regularity of portraits and the style which speaks to me, and underlines that the Tetrarchy was a definite and important break from the chaos of the 3rd century.
