Commentary
Poids excessivement léger. Portrait et légende de droit inhabituels pour Hostilien avec CAE. Pour l’an 12, A. Kotschev a recensé 96 sesterces avec dix coins de droit pour l’ensemble des variétés au nombre de 40 au total entre les droits et les revers avec un poids moyen de 11,37 g. Les poids des monnaies s’abaissent très rapidement.
