Description

This denarius was struck in 46 BC in Rome under the authority of the moneyer T. Carisius, during the transitional period between the Roman Republic and the Empire.

This denarius was issued at a pivotal moment in Roman history, marked by the civil war between Julius Caesar and Pompey, and Caesar’s rise to power. The symbols of Victory (Victoria) on both sides of the coin likely reflect Caesar’s military triumphs and the hope for an era of peace and prosperity.
