Message:: [QUOTE="ValiantKnight, post: 1907945, member: 44210"]On April 21, 753 BC, Romulus founded the city that would eventually come to rule much of the then-known world and help shape world history as a result. That year would be the basis for the dating system the Romans would come to utilize: Ab urbe condita ("from the founding of the City [of Rome]). So post any and all of your ancient/medieval coins that mention and/or depict Roma!
