Commentary
Ce type de revers se trouve plutôt avec des modules inférieurs, sur les émissions du Ier siècle. Parmi les monnaies de ce type émises au IIe siècle, ce bronze est le plus lourd.
This type of reverse is found more with lower modules, on issues from the 1st century. Among the coins of this type issued in the 2nd century, this bronze is the heaviest
