Roman Republic – 3 × As, after 211 BC, Rome
49.99 CHF
This lot includes three bronze asses struck after the major currency reform of the Roman Republic around 211 BC. The obverse depicts the bearded, laureate double head of Janus, symbolizing beginnings and endings as well as stability and order within the Republic. On the reverse appears the prow of a ship facing right, an emblem of Rome’s naval strength during the Punic Wars; the value mark “I” is shown above and on the obverse, with “ROMA” inscribed below the prow. These coins reflect Rome’s rise as the dominant Mediterranean power and stand as impressive witnesses of Republican coinage.
