If it deals with ancient antiquities I would think it would be OK. I would like to see what's there first.

Very interesting, I've downloaded it and will spend some time reading it later. As far as making this a sticky, I think it would be best to post it in the Books, downloads, and website section. If you could repost the information there. It would be easier to do that than me trying to move it there.

Echizento;
OK, but I notice the title of threads after a day come right up in Google. Like search "Magnus Maximus Pick Up- Should I Start A Usurper Collection?" and you get his post as the first return. My goal is if someone searches Donald Jackson roman locks etc they come up and can be found. So hopefully you let me leave this original post alone as it will work for a search already. Now is there any place in the forum to house PDF files for reference? I used my mail account and shared these because you can post photos or a link but not a file.

If you want to leave it as is that's fine, it can stay here.

That is a bit of a headscratacher @lks. There are two subjects noted by Jackson, "Figure with animal, perhaps a horse". I played around with the pic in the *.pdf, but not sure I can improve on your pic. It kinda looks like someone sitting on the floor scratching a dog's back while the dog tips his head up toward the ceiling.   "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."

OK I see that, but thinking about the Seal the person wanted to tell the world on some document, sure he could have been a dog groomer. So in that line, maybe a Vet who delivers calves, lambs, or colts? If that is even close what an image to have someone make a seal ring for you of that.

I don't know why but I just looked at it and thought "it's someone milking a goat". I must have have seen the motif somewhere before. Anyway, I googled "milking goat Roman intaglio", clicked on images and viola! Similar imagery occurs on the coins.  Edited by Kushanshah
