<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DonnaML, post: 4063841, member: 110350&quot;]May I ask what the difference is? I know that the term &quot;Twelve Caesars&quot; is a reference to Suetonius&#039;s work, but I have no idea when it started being used to refer to a particular set of coins.&nbsp; Do the coins all have to be of the same kind, like all gold or all denarii or all bronze or all provincial or all Roman imperial?&nbsp; Thanks.</p><p><br /></p><p>(As for me personally, I have no coins from Julius Caesar, Caligula, Galba, or Otho, and have only a bronze coin of Claudius, with denarii for the other seven.&nbsp; And unless I ever get to the point of being able or willing to spend close to $1,000 on an individual coin, I doubt I&#039;ll ever have coins from all twelve.&nbsp; Not that that&#039;s ever been a particular goal of mine.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
