Commentary


Pour ce type, M. Crawford a relevé une estimation de 450 coins de droit et de 562 coins de revers. Au revers, sur notre exemplaire, nous avons un X placé au-dessus du taureau. C’est l’un des deniers républicains les plus courants du monnayage avec une production dépassant certainement le million de deniers frappés.
