Caesare ad Carolum VI Author Laurentio Patarol Latin Beginning of the 18th Century The book presents a historical and numismatic overview of Roman rulers, emperors, and caesars, from Julius Caesar to Charles VI, covering both East and West. The text is entirely in Latin, organized by imperial figures, with small historical notes and visual identification surrounding each coin figure. Patarol used his own collection of medals and ancient coins as a basis to illustrate the book, translating the numismatic value into visual support for each listed ruler. It is considered a classic work of the 18th century within numismatic literature, used as a historical source by researchers of imperial iconography.
