The moneyer's legend M•PISO•M•F FRVGI is inscribed in two lines in the upper field within the wreath, referencing Marcus Pupius Piso, son of Marcus, and his cognomen Frugi. The composition alludes to the pontifical or augural offices associated with the gens Calpurnia Piso. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
M. Pupius Piso issued this denarius as moneyer in 61 BC, the same year his adoptive father — the consul M. Pupius Piso Frugi Calpurnianus — returned from governing Macedonia. The FRVGI cognomen in the legend is a deliberate borrowing from the Calpurnian gens into which the family had married, a common Republican practice of advertising adoptive lineage on coinage. RRC 418/2 is the more frequently encountered of the two types Crawford lists for this moneyer, though neither survives in large numbers.
