[QUOTE="Severus Alexander, post: 7655759, member: 84744"]Ah yes, the guy who killed Severus Alexander. Not my fave. ;) The portrait style you just obtained is sometimes described as being based on Sev Alex, but personally I think that's a stretch. Very loosely based, that's for sure! I have an OK denarius, the Max Thrax coin I like best is this As: [ATTACH=full]1316175[/ATTACH] The denarius: [ATTACH=full]1316176[/ATTACH] Son Maximus: [ATTACH=full]1316177[/ATTACH] Harry Sidebottom does a good job of fictionalizing this period in his series [I]Throne of the Caesars. [/I]It goes from the death of Sev Alex, through Max Thrax and the Gordians.[/QUOTE]
