Replica Ancient Roman Coinage “Twelve Caesars” -- Coin Set -

This collection of replica denarii consists of 12 such coins from the first 12 caesars of Rome, Julius to Domititian. The size (about 18 mm diameter), thickness (about 1.7 mm thick) and colour (silver) are realistic. The original denarius weighed about 4.5 grams which was 1/72nd of a Roman pound and always included a portrait of the reigning caesar. A very brief history of each of the 12 caesars is also included. The denarius was the most widely traded coin in the Roman empire and was worth about the wages of a farm worker for a day during the early first century. This set makes a valuable teaching device for first century Roman history and Biblical studies.

These are the coins of the 12 Caesars written by Seutonius. I will make a shadow box with them and hang them over my desk.

Not what I expected.Price value too high.

I find myself Romanizing being in that era while looking at this display

This is a great gift for young folks who want to learn more about ancient Roman coins!

These are wonderful and look realistic!

all was well,, exactly as described,,, arrival was pretty quick....,,

Museum quality replicas made with lead free metal alloy. They look pretty much exactly as they mightve appeared back in the Roman times.My only problem with it was that they are a tad bit too thin, but its not a huge problem.
