A
coin that someone somewhere has conveniently released on this Valentine's Day,
apparently shows that Cleopatra and Antony didn't look like movie stars. Shock
horror.Some
sources have claimed Cleopatra was a 'minger', beak nosed, had thin lips with
a pointy-out chin... Antony apparently had a flat 'bashed in' face with a squashed
nose.
Here
is the coin (and no, it's not to scale (in USA it's quite a bit smaller than 1c,
in the UK the same size as a 5p))...
| Cleopatra: |

| Antony
