| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare head of a youthful male deity, generally identified as Apollo or Saturn, facing right, encircled by an oak wreath (corona quercea). The mark of value appears below the chin as a monogram combining XVI with a crossed X (denoting 16 asses), rendered within a dotted border. The portrait is executed in the vigorous late-Republican engraving style, with finely detailed wreath leaves framing the face. No legend is present on the obverse field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
L. Memmius held the moneyer post around 109–108 BC, a moment when Rome was badly distracted by the Jugurthine War — a conflict marked less by military disaster than by the corruption it exposed among the senatorial class. The war's mismanagement triggered prosecutions under the Mamilian Commission, which swept up several prominent figures for allegedly taking bribes from Jugurtha. Memmius the moneyer may well be connected to C. Memmius, the tribune who drove those prosecutions aggressively in the popular interest.
