dougsmit Pillar of the Community United States 1549 Posts	Posted 08/17/2012 2:31 pm 200+ named coin issuing people divided by 52 weeks means 3-4 a week on average if you call all of them Emperors. How many Roman Emperors you accept is a matter of opinion. Everybody counts Augustus but there are some we don't even know when they died and a couple if they really lived. Until recently nobody believed in Domitian II. As an exercise write down all the names you can and see how many you get. Report this Post to the Staff
