Roman Imperatorial | Cassius | Denarius | MS 4x4

This historically important silver denarius was struck under the authority of Gaius Cassius Longinus, one of Julius Caesar’s assassins, during the turbulent years following Caesar’s death. Issued by his legate L. Spinther, the coin reflects Republican religious symbolism and the political propaganda of the Liberators.

Obverse: Tripod, a sacred symbol associated with Apollo and divine prophecy.
Reverse: Jug and lituus, emblems of priestly office and Roman ritual authority.

Certified Mint State with strong strike quality (4/5) and attractive surfaces (4/5), this piece offers a rare chance to own coinage tied directly to one of Rome’s most infamous figures. This is an incredibly important artifact preserved in mint condition from the early days of the Roman Empire.
