<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 3826540, member: 19463&quot;]I have always wondered at the fact that Emperors seemed to tolerate defeated or disgraced predecessors as often as they did.&nbsp; There is a suggestion that Augustus did not tolerate EID MAR and Septimius did not allow Pescennius but those may not be totally factual.&nbsp; We know Antony legionaries circulated until slick and he was a loser.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I wish US coins were done this way.&nbsp; I would get a kick of checking my change for a rare Nixon as Caesar with the Checkers (the dog) reverse.&nbsp; It would be interesting to see what our politicians of the last 250 years would select for the coins if they were allowed to pick the designs.&nbsp; We do have some interesting Hard Times Tokens. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I suppose I should be a fan of the state quarters but those were driven into the ground when they ran out of states and went on to parks etc.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
