"I, Claudius" Collection

Set Description
This is a set of bronze coins depicting each of the Roman Emperors featured in the book/TV series "I, Claudius." The book was written by Robert Graves in 1934, and the BBC Television series adaptation was produced in 1976.
I remember watching the TV series as a teen and then reading the book, so it was just a matter of time before I sought out the ancient coins of these interesting Roman Emperors.

Set Goals
The collecting goal was to obtain a bronze coin featuring the busts of the following five Roman Emperors: Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius and Nero.
The reverse of each bronze coin has the letters SC, which stands for "Senatus Consulto," because the value of the coin was set by decree of the Roman Senate.
