Beschrijving keerzijde A winged caduceus, symbol of Mercury and of diplomatic accord, displayed centrally in the field with two small wings extending laterally from the shaft at mid-height and a pair of intertwined serpents forming the head at the top. The staff rises from the lower field and occupies the full vertical extent of the design. The encircling legend CAESAR IMP surrounds the device within a border of dots, a reference to Octavian and commemorating the Treaty of Misenum alliance between the triumvirs.

Aanvullende informatie

Struck during the brief but politically electric period when Antony and Octavian had formalized their alliance through the Treaty of Brundisium, this joint issue acknowledges both men as *imperator* — a designation each was claiming aggressively in the aftermath of Philippi. The pairing was diplomatically calculated: Antony, the senior partner in military prestige, and Octavian, whose adoptive name carried Caesar's weight.

The alliance would fracture within a decade. By 31 BC, coins naming both men would become inconvenient objects in Rome.
