Commentary
Comme pour le denier d'Auguste, cette pièce appartient à l'atelier impérial de Lyon et ce type de denier a circulé pendant pratiquement un siècle. Il se rencontre très souvent avec des monnaies gauloises de la phase terminale dans les fouilles archéologiques. C’est la monnaie romaine la plus courante en Gaule. La sixième émission se caractérise par un socle représenté par une ligne d’exergue et les pieds du siège sont ornementés au revers ; au droit, le portrait est vieilli et plus stylisé.
As with the Augustan denarius, this coin belongs to the imperial mint of Lyon and this type of denarius circulated for almost a century. It is very often found with Gallic coins from the late phase in archaeological excavations. It is the most common Roman coin in Gaul. The sixth issue is characterized by a base represented by an exergue line and the feet of the seat are ornamented on the reverse; on the obverse, the portrait is aged and more stylized
