Product description
Julius Caesar was the first Roman whose portrait appeared on coins during his lifetime, a break with tradition that underscored his power and status. This set celebrates his eventful life with three replica denarii.
The set contains a denarius with an elephant, a denarius with Caesar's portrait, and a posthumous coins struck after his death. Each coin is directly cast from an original and made in lead-free tin. The double-sided coins are mounted on an information card with historical background about Caesar and his coinage.
A fascinating set for collectors and for those who want to bring Roman history to life.
