…and I’m going to ignore that Domitian was just posted to post my $9 denarius that was in black concrete-like encrustations and tooth-picked free after about 4 hours. Needs more cleaning but figured I’d leave it like this… …now Nerva. Haha.
As long as no one takes my Marcus Aurelius spot it’s all good xD. I’m waiting for that. BEST. EMPEROR. EVER.
Wow, is that last one above a bearded Trajan? Never seen that (or paid close enough attention to the type, I suppose). Hadrian.
Yesss!! One more and it’s my turn! ^_^ How do you get your pictures like that? Alright next up: Antoninus Pius!
So I’m guessing Trajan was one of the few clean shaven Emperors? I think Augustus was clean shaven too right? But most I’ve seen have had beards.
Hadrian was was the first with a full beard, although both Nero and Titus had sort of scruffy neck beards.
Hmm that’s interesting. I wonder why the change from clean shaven to bearded. Did Julius Caesar or Marc Antony have a beard? I believe Pompey did have one.
