| Aanvullende informatie |
Quintus Salvidienus Rufus was one of Octavian's most trusted generals — appointed to command forces in Gaul and given responsibilities that placed him among the inner circle of the future Augustus. He never struck coin again. In 40 BC, the same year this denarius was issued, he was accused of secretly negotiating with Mark Antony and condemned for treason by the Senate, reportedly on Octavian's own denunciation. He died before trial, almost certainly by suicide.
His is among the very few names erased so thoroughly from Octavian's orbit that no subsequent honorific survived him.
