The fact Caesar put his picture on a coin was probably a major factor why he was assassinated, that is the act of a king and not a senator. </p><p><br /></p><p>Kings and emperors put their picture on coins as a display of their power. How is this much different than putting a picture of the upper class on coins, (former presidents). How many dictators around the world DON&#039;T have their picture on currency?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
