I am comfortable with the the new Forum format, and with the suggested adjustments it should be good to go.

Despite my many reservations about this "upgrade," at least I can now upload GIFS:

Your dessire is my command. Circa DCLXXII AUC (82 bc). An important note on the Sulla coins is that these were issued by Q. Pompeius Rufus in 54 BC. Yes they pre-date Caesar, but they were not issued by the man whose portrait appears on the coin. There are many portraits prior to Caesar, but Caesar was the first Roman to actually put his own portrait on the coin while living (though not for long in this case). Sulla did put himself in quadriga on a coin while living, but its just a distant image of him riding a chariot and is not a portrait. This was also a rather common coin form. I know this isn't what was asked, but a Macedonian sample would be Ptolemy I after Alexander's death.
