Additional information

Corinth's civic coinage under Galba occupies a narrow nine-month window between Nero's death in June 68 and Galba's assassination in January 69. The colony had been refounded by Julius Caesar in 44 BC and retained the right to strike bronze provincials, issuing them in the names of local magistrates — here the duovir L. Caninius Agrippa, whose name appears abbreviated across surviving specimens with enough variation in the final letters to suggest more than one working die.
