    I have an idea for your videos, there should be some sort of background music (copyright free ofcourse) it would add a layer of interest to the coins you discuss. Great video, learned lots of new things, keep these video coming 👍

    What a great informational video, glad to see you're back mate! I don't really know too much about Roman coins (or really any ancient coins for that matter!) But am always interested on knowing a little bit more about such coins.

    Though Caesar was the first Roman to place his own portrait on his coins, the practice of a living ruler doing such a thing became popular during the Hellenistic era, when Alexander's generals sought to establish their domains. Nevertheless, for Caesar to display his own likeness, as opposed to glorifying the gods or one of his ancestors, which had been customary for Roman moneyers until that time, doubtlessly added to the Senate's suspicions of him.

      Very interesting! Thanks mate. Should have specified that it was the first of the Romans!

    Hi, Julius César was not an emperor but a dictator, the first emperor was his heir Octavian as you said.

    Lovely coin of one of the world's most important characters! Thats one of the neat things about collecting ancient coins, you might have a coin that is not in the best of conditions, yet it is loaded with such historical significance that it is still highly desirable.

    Julius Caesar was never actually proclaimed an emperor or took that title.

    Julius Cesar was never Emperor, so at the beginning of the video you say a coin the Emperor may have touched is technically wrong
