Commentary


Une petite contremarque de banquier sur le cou de Salus (C) en creux. Pour ce type, M. Crawford a relevé une estimation de 651 coins de droit et de 723 coins de revers. C’est l’un des types monétaires qui permit de financer le parti sénatorial au début de l’année 49 avant J.-C. quand ce dernier rejoignit Pompée qui avait quitté Rome. .
