| Additional information |
Issued under the moneyer Gaius Antistius Reginus, one of the tresviri monetales appointed for 13 BC — a college of three junior magistrates who retained nominal oversight of the mint even as Augustus consolidated effective control over coinage policy. The precise identity of this Antistius Reginus remains debated; a consul suffect of 6 BC shares the name, and the moneyer post would fit the expected cursus honorum of someone reaching the consulship roughly seven years later.
13 BC was a politically charged year: Augustus had recently returned from Gaul and Spain, and the Senate voted him the Ara Pacis on July 4th of that year.
