Roman Coin Mahjong is a competitive version of the Mahjong solitaire matching game. In this game, you will be racing against time to find matching Roman coin pairs, which are then removed from the field of play. When all the coins are removed from the field of play, a list of facts about a Roman Emperor(s) will be revealed.
As you progress in the game you will achieve progressively higher ranks, which are shown below.
Plebe - Citizen of Rome
Eques - Knight of Rome
Patrician - Nobleman of Rome
Tribune - Magistrate
Senator - Leading Nobleman
Consul - Chief Magistrate
Caesar - Ruler in Training

Tiberius (14 - 37 AD)
Gaius (Caligula) (37 - 41 AD)
Claudius (41 - 54 AD)

Image Sources Used:

But all the original coin images were accessed from the following ancient coin shops and/or auction houses between July 11, 2019 - October 20, 2019:
