[QUOTE="AnemicOak, post: 205650, member: 5224"]There are coins of Julius Nepos out there. Nepos was Augustus 474-475, Romulus Augustus was Augustus 475-476, however the Eastern Empire continued to recognize Nepos as the Western Emperor until his death in 480 (deposed Emperor from 475-480). They never recognized Romulus who was seen as a usurper until he was deposed by the Herulian Odoacer. So I guess depending on how you look at it Nepos was the last Western Emperor & Romulus was a usurper or Romulus was the last Emperor after overthrowing Nepos in 475.[/QUOTE]
