Commentary
À partir de 10 après J.-C., Tibère, associé au pouvoir et héritier présomptif d’Auguste, participe au monnayage de son beau-père. Nous sommes bien en présence d’un as et pas d’un dupondius. Si le droit est de très bonne facture, l’autel au revers semble stylisé, comme étriqué. Sommes-nous en présence d’un exemplaire officiel ou d’une production locale ? J.-B. Giard n’avait recensé qu’un seul exemplaire de ce type avec la cinquième acclamation impériale. Nous n’avons pas relevé d’identité de coin pertinente.
From 10 AD, Tiberius, associated with power and heir presumptive to Augustus, participated in the minting of his father-in-law. We are indeed in the presence of an ace and not a dupondius. If the obverse is of very good quality, the altar on the reverse seems stylized, as if narrow. Are we in the presence of an official example or a local production? J.-B. Giard had only recorded a single example of this type with the fifth imperial acclamation. We have not noted any relevant die identity
