Due to the reduced silver content in these denarii, they circulated well beyond even Nero’s great debasement of Roman coinage. This series was produced specifically to be paid to his army and navy on the lead up to the Battle of Actium on the 2nd of September 31 BC, and was produced in excessive quantities. Twenty three legions were honoured on these coin types, most of which are seen throughout this hoard.
