Description

Anonymous issue, (86 B.C.), silver denarii, Rome mint, (3.86, 3.76, 3.80 g), obv. laureate head of Apollo to right, thunderbolt below, rev. Jupiter in quadriga to right, (S.266, RSC 226, Cr.350A/2, Syd.723). One with banker's mark on cheek, otherwise fine - very fine. (3)

These coins are connected stylistically with the signed denarii of Gargonius, Ogulnius and Vergilius. However the reason for this extremely late anonymous issue is unclear.
