<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Terence Cheesman, post: 6048972, member: 86498&quot;]I think I would prefer a mix. For all my coins to be rare would mean my reign was short and therefore a failure and if my coins are really cheap and plentiful might mean that I had wrecked the economy and my rule resulted in a great deal of misery to my subjects. The one denomination I would like to introduce would be a four denarius coin in silver. Hopefully it would be popular enough to be minted in large numbers. I would like to have a great deal a variety on the reverses of my coins celebrating victories, building projects, and other events. Since we have already seen an aureus on this thread.</p><p>Marcus Aurelius Av Aureus 165-166 AD. Obv Head right laureate Rv Felicitas standing facing head left.

I looked worse than Richard Harris did in the film Gladiator[ATTACH=full]1244565[/ATTACH] I kept it for a few years and got rid of it along with the long hair.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
