Beschrijving voorzijde Bare head of Ceres facing right, her hair elaborately dressed and crowned with a wreath of corn-ears, with loose flowing locks descending behind the neck. A small earring is visible at the ear. The portrait is rendered in fine late-Republican style with expressive, naturalistic detail. The field is plain, and the design is contained within a neat border of raised dots encircling the flan.

Aanvullende informatie

Lucius Mussidius Longus served as one of several moneyers appointed under the tresviri monetales during the chaotic period following Caesar's assassination, when the triumviral authorities were simultaneously funding armies and fighting a propaganda war through coinage. The RRC 494 series is extraordinarily broad — Crawford lists dozens of distinct types struck by multiple moneyers in a compressed window — reflecting the sheer volume of gold required to pay soldiers loyal to Octavian and Antony ahead of Philippi in 42 BC.

The 44b subtype within Mussidius Longus's output is distinguished by die-link specifics catalogued by Crawford, separating it from the commoner 44a.
