Update on Roman Empire, Page 4 "Decadence" = Caligula bronze
The latest update to the my NGC Ancients Custom Set entitled "The Roman Empire" is that I finished and posted my Owner's Comments for my ancient bronze featuring the notorious Emperor Caligula.
While I don't want to go into the entirety of my comments, I will provide here an intriguing except...
In addition to scandalous accounts still sensationalized in modern media, Caligula left behind a rich and interesting coinage. This bronze is of particular interest, contemporaneous with Caligula’s metamorphosis into a monster, even if the extent of monstrosity is subject to historical interpretation.
