[QUOTE="johnmilton, post: 7676844, member: 101855"]I have a list of emperors from Julius Caesar (Caesar's official title was "dictator.") to Severus III who was the last emperor according to some. I have concentrated on early list from Julius Caesar to Constantine I (a.k.a. "The Great). I have all but four or five of the emperors on that list. Of course exactly who qualifies as an emperor is another question. The emperor Macrinus who ruled during 217 to 218 had an eight year son he made into an emperor just before both he and his son were assassinated. His son was "emperor" for only a few days. He is not not on my list although there were coins issued in his name. This the Chat forum so this is not the right place for this, but here is a sample, an Augustus Caesar denarius. [ATTACH=full]1318601[/ATTACH] Denarius of Caesar Augustus, Obverse AVGUSTVS DIVI f, (son of divine (Julius) having been adopted by Julius Caesar.) Reverse: IMP X (emperor year 10, which would date this coin to the year 15 BC.) The charging bull seen on this and many other coins of Augustus is thought to be a reference to his father's victory near the Greco-Italian city of Thurium (Thourioi in Lucania) over a rebellious band of slaves. Denarius, Sears variety # 1610[/QUOTE]
