Who would you like to meet? Here's the catch, they have to have been on a coin during sometime (tokens don't count). It could be ancient, or more modern...who would you have like to have met that was once used on a coin? Me: Either Aurelian, Roosevelt, or Churchill. stainless
Napoleon I, Louis XIV, Christian VII of Denmark-Norway, Gustav III of Sweden or Brutus. I like Brutus, he was not a traitor. Quite the opposite really.
Charles XII of Sweden, Mary Queen of Scotland, Queen Elizabeth I of England, and finally Abraham Lincoln.
Churchill, without a doubt Churchill.....one of the greatest statesmen of our time. Oh, too, Elenore Roosevelt....now there was one feisty lady.
For US coins John Adams, John Quincy Adams, and soon to be Calvin Coolidge. All are cousins of mine Richard
He'd be pretty cool to meet. There are a number of people on coins I'd like to meet. Abe Lincoln, Pope John Paul II are two others that come to mind.
Absolutely yes. On that list should be George Washington & Plutarch also! Thank you for the recent education about Plutarch. Very best regards, collect89
Agreed. I love history and there are so many people I wish I could go back and talk too...even many people who are considered to be "less than good" historically would be fascinating.
- Augustus and Julius Caesar were both on the same coin at times, so that's one. - Emperor Antoninus Pius - Queen Victoria - Emperor Carausius - Henry VIII (When he was still young, I'd love to go out drinking with him!) And all of you who chose Romans - you can only talk to them if you speak Latin. Ha!
I'll second that In order from who I'd like the meet the most first, Julius Caesar Brutus Claudius Alexander III Aeneas Marcus Aggripa Vercingetorix
