Commentary


Pour ce type, M. Crawford a relevé une estimation de 370 coins de droit et de 462 coins de revers pour deux variétés. C’est l’un des deniers républicains les plus courants du monnayage avec une production dépassant certainement le million de deniers frappés. Sur notre exemplaire, le V pointé au-dessus est placé au-dessus du quadrige.
