The thought just dawned on me. Twelve Caesars... twelve coins... twelve months in the year. Might be fun to create a calendar, add some historical info about each ruler under each coin picture, then add a quick, general description of what's on the coin (in terminology understandable by the general public), and have some calendars done up for 2026 as gifts for friends and family. It's such a simple idea, I'm sure it has occurred to someone before, and not just our photo pros who normally create calendars. I just did this quickie layout, in one image. Might be a fun idea to play with, later in the year. What do you think?
I would be a buyer of one these calendars. Those who choose to partipate in this project keep us up to date.
Yeah, but the problem there is that if the Caesars are put in chronological order, ol' Julius comes in January, not March.
It is an interesting idea, but I don't have coins of Tiberius, Claudius, Galba, Otho, Vitellius and Titus, so I can't do it.
I think I could even make a desk calendar with one-a-day coin photos, though 365 days might have me dipping into my cheapo extra stuff once I ran out of collection stuff to showcase.
