Commentary


Représentation du revers historiquement importante avec une représentation du premier temple de Jupiter capitolin. Pour ce type, M. Crawford a relevé une estimation de 70 coins de droit et de 78 coins de revers. Ce type semble plus rare que ne le laissent supposer les ouvrages généraux.
