Gaius Julius Caesar, 17 B.C. - 21 February 4 A.D., Tralleis (as Caesarea), Lydia
|Tralleis|, |Gaius| |Julius| |Caesar,| |17| |B.C.| |-| |21| |February| |4| |A.D.,| |Tralleis| |(as| |Caesarea),| |Lydia|, The brothers, Caius and Lucius, were the sons of Agrippa and Julia, the daughter of Augustus. They were adopted by Augustus in 17 B.C. and were due to succeed him but predeceased him in 4 and 2 A.D. Augustus' wife, their step-mother, Livia, was rumored to have arranged both of their deaths to advance her son Tiberius, who was later adopted as Augustus' son and heir.

RPC I describes the type with a star on the obverse and notes "the star is not usually clear, but was probably present on all specimens." We disagree. Many specimens, including this one, do not have even the slightest indication of a star.
