<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NOS, post: 2572099, member: 2098&quot;]In addition to the coin being a fake, the information insert is off. This can be seen where it states, &quot;Incidentally, there are many historians who believe Nero had Rome burned so he could blame it on the Christians.&quot; It&#039;s not so much that Nero had Rome burned so he could blame it on the Christians but rather that they may have been blamed in its aftermath as a scapegoating measure.</p><p><br /></p><p>Some speculate that he caused the fire to make room to build his <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domus_Aurea" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domus_Aurea" rel="nofollow">Domus Aurea</a> villa. There are a lot of speculative causes regarding the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Fire_of_Rome" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Fire_of_Rome" rel="nofollow">cause of the fire</a> but one arguing that it was done with the purpose to assign blame on one particular group is one of the least credible explanations I&#039;ve heard of for it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
