Excerpt from Roman Imperial Profiles: Being a Series of More Than One Hundred and Sixty Lithographic Profiles, Enlarged From Coins The only part of the face in which possibly some license has been taken is the eye. Though the earlier coins are of course in a higher style of art than the later ones, yet even in the earlier coins the eye seems to have been often imperfectly represented, and in the later mints it is drawn quite inaccurately. In the eye, therefore, Mr. Croft has corrected their bad drawing, and this can hardly be called a departure from the original.
