Coin (reverse), Denarius, of Lucius Cassius CaecianusThis silver coin was minted in Rome by Lucius Cassius Caecianus in 102 BC. It is a type called a denarius, the most common Roman silver coin. This picture shows the reverse of the coin. The reverse shows two yoked oxen. Above them is the mint control-mark of the letter V and a pellet. Below is the inscription 'L. CASSI', referring to the moneyer. Later coins of the Republic often had reverse designs alluding to the importance of the moneyer's family. This design complements that on the obverse, and may refer to the foundation of a temple of Ceres by an ancestor of the moneyer. Record detailsTo search on related items, click any linked text below.
