Circa 69 -79 ad and 13.7 g I like it. Got any Tiberius or Caligula coins? (Ah Caligula what a guy!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted March 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 I like it. Got any Tiberius or Caligula coins? (Ah Caligula what a guy!) Sadly, no Tiberius or Caligula. Although I do have a Commodus denarius and an Elagabalus tetradrachm. These two would easily compete with Caligula for the title of `most insane and bloodthirsty Roman Emperor'.

Ætheling Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 Ah old Elagabalus... the Emperor that wanted to be a girl. Commodus well yeah, Joaquin Phoenix gave a glimpse of his character. Except for the fact that Commodus thought he was Hercules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
