<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sallent, post: 3070980, member: 76194&quot;]I will. Of course I will, as it&#039;s been an eventful journey. But for a few lucky breaks I doubt I&#039;d have as much budget to work with for my last two as I have now. Who knows, if I get a good break on Nero or Galba then perhaps I&#039;ll have enough money for a marginal/moderate upgrade of my Tiberius at the end of this (the weakest link in the group).</p><p><br /></p><p>There is one thing you don&#039;t have to wait for my write up to figure out...doing a 12 Caesars set for $3000 is easy if you are willing to use provincial coins and posthumous coins, or coins with no portrait. Doing a set for $3000 of (1) nothing but imperials minted during the reign of that particular emperor, and (2) only coins with an Imperial portrait, is bloody hard. </p><p><br /></p><p>Its easy to blow half that budget on 2 coins alone, Julius Caesar and Caligula, and that still leaves you with other somewhat pricey people like Tiberius, Galba, Vitellius, and Otho to contend with. It is a real challenge...which is why I&#039;m doing it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
