Commentary
Poids léger. 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.
Lightweight. Like 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.
