Ancient Roman Republic 100 BC W. Servilius Caepius, L. Calpurnius Piso Silver Denarius VF-EF (VF30)
The silver denarius of Quintus Servilius Caepio and Lucius Calpurnius Piso, struck around 100 BCE during the Roman Republic, is a notable example of late Republican coinage that reflects both political identity and religious symbolism. The obverse typically features a laureate head of Saturn, a traditional deity associated with prosperity and time, while the reverse depicts two figures emphasizing the prestige of the moneyers’ families. Like many coins of the period, it served not only as currency but also as subtle political messaging, reinforcing lineage and influence within Rome’s competitive aristocratic society.
Obverse: Laureate head of Saturn facing right, a harpa behind, with the legend around, within a border of dots.
Reverse: Two male figures seated side-by-side on a bench (subsellium), a corn ear in the left and right fields, within a border of dots.
Specifications:
Composition: Silver
Weight: Approx. 4 g
