They were arranged in two chronological trays (tabulas), starting with Augustus and going down to ‘the terrible impersonator of Hercules’, Commodus (pessimus ille personatus Hercules). In his usual immodest way, D’Ewes pointed out what a good collection it was: many rare emperors were represented (Galba, Otho, Vitellius), as well as rare imperial wives (Sabina, Faustina I and II, Lucilla). He emphasised that the coins were genuine, in a field where forgeries abounded, including those of Otho, Avidius Cassius (!) and Antinous.'
