Description: The Twelve Caesars, written by Gaius Suetonius Tranquillus (c.AD 71 - c.AD 135), is a set of biographies of Julius Caesar and the first eleven emperors of the Roman Empire. Material for The Twelve Caesars was gathered from the imperial archives and surviving eyewitnesses of the time, as well as his own experiences of life at court.The work tells the tale of each Caesar's life according to a set formula of descriptions; appearance, omens, family history, quotes and then a history, which are all given in a consistent order.Julius Caesar was the first living Roman to have his portrait on the current coinage of the official mint.

The Emperors are Julius Caesar, Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius, Nero, Galba, Otho, Vitellius, Vespasian, Titus and Domitian.The spectacular Twelve Caesars coin pack contains 12 reproduction coins held in clear plastic blisters, and the coins obverse and reverse can be clearly seen.
