<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Orfew, post: 2675855, member: 74968&quot;]Actually I am squarely within my focus. I have collected the 12 Caesars because I read Suetonius when I was younger and just recently read it again. I consider this time period to be foundational to western history. It was a very important time and is represented by some very important rulers. I would argue that at least eight of the twelve are among the most important rulers of Rome. This is the other reason I collected the twelve. That is, these rulers are important historical figures.</p><p><br /></p><p>The other coins I have collected are also important historical figures. I would argue then that in fact I have not changed focus at all.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>(by the way, I will never abandon the 12. Why would I? I enjoy collecting the area very much. Why should I stop doing something that gives me so much satisfaction?</p><p>Since I have the 12 I have been upgrading when I see better coins but I am being very selective concerning which ones I add)</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Below is a list of the coins of historical figures I have collected so far.</p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>Roman</b></p><p><br /></p><p>Pompey the Great</p><p><br /></p><p>Julius Caesar</p><p><br /></p><p>Marc Antony</p><p><br /></p><p>Augustus</p><p><br /></p><p>Tiberius</p><p><br /></p><p>Claudius</p><p><br /></p><p>Caligula (Gaius)</p><p><br /></p><p>Nero</p><p><br /></p><p>Vespasian</p><p><br /></p><p>Trajan</p><p><br /></p><p>Constantine the great</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>Byzantine</b></p><p><br /></p><p>Justinianus</p><p><br /></p><p>Theophilos</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>British</b></p><p><br /></p><p>Elizabeth I</p><p><br /></p><p>Henry V</p><p><br /></p><p>Winston Churchill (modern coin)</p><p><br /></p><p><b>French</b></p><p><br /></p><p>Charles VII</p><p><br /></p><p>Napoleon I</p><p><br /></p><p>Louis IX</p><p><br /></p><p>Jeanne D’arc (modern coin)</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>Russian</b></p><p><br /></p><p>Ivan the Terrible</p><p><br /></p><p>Feodor I</p><p><br /></p><p>Michael I</p><p><br /></p><p>Peter the Great</p><p><br /></p><p>Catherine II</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Mongolia</b></p><p>Genghis Khan</p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>Now here is a list of coins I am working on:</b></p><p><br /></p><p><b>Roman</b></p><p><br /></p><p>Sulla</p><p><br /></p><p>Brutus</p><p><br /></p><p>Cassius</p><p><br /></p><p>Nerva</p><p><br /></p><p>Hadrian</p><p><br /></p><p>Antoninus Pius</p><p><br /></p><p>Marcus Aurelius</p><p><br /></p><p>Commodus</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>Austria</b></p><p>Franz Joseph</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>Byzantine</b></p><p>Maurice</p><p>Heraclius</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Egyptian</b></p><p>Cleopatra VII</p><p><br /></p><p><b>British</b></p><p>Henry VIII</p><p><br /></p><p>King Cnut</p><p><br /></p><p>Aethelraed II</p><p><br /></p><p><b>French</b></p><p><br /></p><p>Eleanor of Acquitaine</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>I would also like coins of these historical historical figures but I am working on the above coins first</b></p><p><br /></p><p>Near East:</p><p><br /></p><p>- Darius/Xerxes daric or siglos</p><p><br /></p><p>- Parthia, Mithradates II</p><p><br /></p><p>- Sassanian, Ardashir I and Shapur I</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Biblical:</p><p><br /></p><p>- Antiochus IV</p><p><br /></p><p>- Herod the Great</p><p><br /></p><p>- Pontius Pilate</p><p><br /></p><p>- Herod Antipas</p><p><br /></p><p>- Herod Agrippa</p><p><br /></p><p>- Porcius Festus</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Indian:</p><p><br /></p><p>- Ashoka the Great</p><p><br /></p><p>- Azes</p><p><br /></p><p>- Nahapana</p><p><br /></p><p>- Satakarni</p><p><br /></p><p>- Chandragupta</p><p><br /></p><p>- Raja Raja Chola[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
