<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 3101154, member: 19463"]I like the new Domitian. Your new set photo suggests you might want to try for a 12 Caesars Provincials set. That would be different. Many of us have a Provincial or two in our sets and feel the need to apologize for the fact that we don't have the denarius or act like it is our fault that Otho did not issue sestertii. A set entirely of Provincials would be different. To make it more challenging, you might want to limit the number of Alexandrians used or make a rule that no more than one can be from one city. I believe Vitellius might be the hardest one unless you find the inexpensive Koinon of Macedonia issue. </p><p><br /></p><p>'One per' set builders might also consider seeing how many emperors/family members they can assemble in Provincial coins. There are some that don't come in Provincial and a few that are much more rare that way but the result could be a really killer set of coins especially if you held to the limit of one per city (for those who like artificial rules that make things difficult). I can not recall ever seeing anyone working on such a collection.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
