Commentary

Cette médaille semble être postérieure à la frappe d’origine.
La basilique Ste Anastasie sur le Palatin est une église de Rome sur les pentes du Mont Palatin. Construite à la fin du IIIe siècle - début du IVe siècle, elle fut restaurée de nombreuses fois. La dernière restauration est celle qui fut faite sous Urbain VIII au XVIIe siècle..
This medal appears to be later than the original minting. The Basilica of St. Anastasia on the Palatine is a church in Rome on the slopes of the Palatine Hill. Built in the late 3rd and early 4th centuries, it was restored numerous times. The last restoration was carried out under Urban VIII in the 17th century.
