As we look at this AR denarius of Gaius Caligula on the obverse and his father Germanicus on the reverse, we are seeing the angst of the Roman populace with this absolute obliteration of the coin. Interesting is the fact that Germanicus is the one who receives the full Damnatio Memoriae! Maybe the citizen was more angry with the one that brought him (Caligula) into the world. A true glimpse of a true defacement. Joe Geranio- text only.
