  9. I always enjoyed Usurpers among the Roman Emperors. Makes for interesting reading, but sometimes you could imagine some horrible repercussions among the general populations as these narcissists forced their ways onto Humanity. Sometimes, most people did not get hurt, just the folks in the top rungs of politics. POST YOUR USURPERS!

  15. This is believed to be a portrait of Scipio in his younger years after he captured Carthago Nova. This is BEFORE he was Africanus, an honor bestowed AFTER he defeated Hannibal at the Battle of Zama in 202 BCE. If this is a true portrait, this would be the first living Roman on a coin. It was minted far from Rome.Carthago Nova, SpainSCIPIORoman Occupation209-206 BCESear Vol2 6575 R
