My first Caracalla, and with Serapis holding a wreath. It also does have a little bit of coppery hue in some areas, which reminds us that this was the beginning of the cliff dive which the denarius went on in the 3rd century. In a few decades it would be no better than a bronze.</p><p><br /></p><p>As you may or may not know, Caracalla is significant for ordering the last major building project (that we know of) in ancient Rome...the famous baths of Caracalla. Sure, he was a bit tyrannical, but what&#039;s a reign of terror when you have nice cool baths to enjoy...well, at least while you still have your head attached to your body. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]461336[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
