<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Roman Collector, post: 2866712, member: 75937&quot;]I always enjoy the running threads where everyone collaborates and I thought I&#039;d start this one.</p><p><br /></p><p>Let&#039;s create a portrait gallery of provincial coins which lists everyone featured on provincials in chronological order, starting with <b>Julius Caesar, Augustus, and Livia.</b> Then we&#039;ll move on to a new family group (emperor and empress, children, etc) every couple of days, roughly in the order they are presented in Sear&#039;s <i>Greek Imperial Coins</i>, until we get to the end of the provincial period with Domitius Domitianus.</p><p><br /></p><p>Inevitably there will be latecomers, omissions, or later purchases but that&#039;s okay-- just add them when you can if that ruler&#039;s time has already passed. Also, it&#039;s okay if you want to post a person that someone already posted. Go ahead and show it off! Feel free to include maps showing the location of your coin&#039;s city, statues of the ruler on the coin, or whatever else you think is appropriate or interesting.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ll get the ball rolling with this one of Augustus and Livia from Colonia Romula, which is modern day Seville:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]684007[/ATTACH] </p><p>Augustus, 27 BC - AD 14 and Livia, AD 14-29</p><p>Roman provincial AE 31 mm, 21.48 g</p><p>Spain, Hispalis, Colonia Romula, AD 14-29</p><p>Obv: PERM DIVI AVG COL ROM, radiate head of Augustus right; thunderbolt before, star above</p><p>Rev: IVLIA AVGVSTA GENETRIX ORBIS, head of Livia, left; globe beneath, crescent above</p><p>Refs: RPC-73; SGI-189; Heiss 393, 2; Cohen 169, 3; Alvarez-Burgos 1587; Lindgren II 69; SNG Tubingen 118; SNG Copenhagen 423.13.35.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
