Abstract

The considerable potential of the coin image as a means of political agitation during the time of the Roman Republic has been recognized long ago. This paper concerns with interpretation of mythological scenes presenting the punishment of high treason and examines their possible connection to particular historical events and real characters. Moreover, possible existence of two variants of the denarii of the RIC I2 Augustus 299 type is proposed.
