Ex. Oslo Mynthandel a/s nr.65 21/11-2010 nr.1336. . Justinian II was the first to picture Jesus on a coin. He was a cruel ruler, and in 695 he was dethroned. To prevent his comeback, his nose was split in two (emperors should be perfect, and mutilations made you imperfect). He was exiled in Crimea, but there he made himself a new nose of silver that he felt was perfect enough for a return 10 years later. If he had been cruel before, he became worse now, and when dethroned again in 711, he was slain beyond recognition.
