I am still working on my little website and thought it would be nice to have a picture of nice coins of each of the Imperials from Julius through.
I also thought it would be nice if each picture I used was of an actual coin that either I have or others have that are here on the forum.
If anyone would like to help by sending me pics of their coins that they don't mind me putting up then please feel free! You will never soar like an eagle if you hang around with turkeys.....

If you look on Tantaluscoins I have just a few there, let me know if there is anything you want.

Will do PP, thank you.
Might take me a while to get them all on with a bit of a description but should be a nice place to check portraits once I have it finished. At the moment just working on getting a bust of each one and just a name but will expand it later.

I can send you pictures of my nicer coins. I assume you're looking for good images of nice coins, not just anything.
I have nice portraits for Carausius, Phillip I, Constantine II, Constantius II, Crispus, Quintillus, Gallienus, Claudius II Gothicus, Maximian, Victorinus, Tetricus II, Julian II, Licinius - just to name a few, as I cant be bothered to sift through the other stuff. I do have a very nice (comparatively) Marcian. I've got quite a few nice examples but not top notch for other people, like gordian III, Saloninus etc.
A couple you might want too are Vaballathus (not the best bust, but still), Aureolus (a bust of Postumus but issued by Aureolus), some monograms (my best being Zenonis, which I doubt anyone else has around). I've got a Marius bust on a coin of Victorinus too, but not the sharpest.
PM me with a list of people you're looking for and ill see if I have a nice example.

Check out the gallery in my sig. Its not totally up to date with what I currently have, but it has a good deal of coins in it. I even have a great-looking gold Anastasius as well. If your willing to put post Roman on there I have a good amount of those on there too, including a few Ostro kings.

Kev if you click on the coin details on Tantaluscoins you will have all the details so you can just cut and paste.

Thanks everyone!
Ben, I am after examples that we get to handle and not so much the pristine stuff that you generally see used on id lists. I want this to be a place that everyone can look and think 'I have one of those!'. When I get further on I will add a new page thanking those that provide the pics and if folks wish, links to their own places of interest.
Any ideas welcome!!

I don't have a lot of Roman Imperials but when I get them loaded to my new photo site, feel free to use them or link to them. Plus you can use any pictures I've posted to CCF. New site: http://inaruvi.wix.com/tifcollection |
