| Aanvullende informatie |
C. Coelius Caldus served as moneyer around 104 BC, a year when Rome was simultaneously absorbing the shock of the Cimbrian migrations and scrambling to reconstitute its legions after the catastrophic defeat at Arausio in 105 BC. The issue belongs to a moment of genuine institutional anxiety — the Senate was about to hand Marius an unprecedented string of consulships to manage the northern threat, and the mint was working at pace to fund mobilization.
RRC 318/1 is notable for its deliberate reference to an ancestor's consulship of 94 BC — unusual in that the moneyer was invoking a political lineage not yet fully established at the time of striking.
