Julius Caesar, his great-uncle, took an interest in Augustus at a young age mentoring him like a son. When Julius Caesar was murdered, Augustus discovered that he was Julius's heir to the throne. Before Augustus could claim the throne, he was forced to battle the armies of both Cleopatra VII of Egypt (The last Ptolemaic Euler) and her lover Roman General Marc Antony. Together they had their own plans for power following Julius Caesar's death. Augustus was victorious, and during his rule as Egypt's first Roman emperor, the country was peaceful and prosperous. Augustus died in 14 A.D., and was succeeded by Emperor Tiberius. Augustus ruled for over 40 years, he minted a lot of coins. Many were so worn he had collected off the market and restruck. Many of his coins are found in low grade or quality. Fine to VF condition. Buy with confidence the coin you see is the coin you’ll receive USPS Priority Insured Shipping with signature confirmation.
