Roman Republic, C. Annius T.f. T.n. Luscus and L. Fabius L.f. Hispaniensis, 82 - 81 B.C.
|99-50| |B.C.|, |Roman| |Republic,| |C.| |Annius| |T.f.| |T.n.| |Luscus| |and| |L.| |Fabius| |L.f.| |Hispaniensis,| |82| |-| |81| |B.C.|, This issue was minted by special decree of the Senate to support the proconsul Annius, sent by Sulla to campaign against Sertorius in Spain. Crawford attributes the early part of this issue, which bears the name of the quaestor L. Fabius L.f. Hispaniensis, to Northern Italy and the latter part, which bears the name of the quaestor, C. Tarquitius P.f., to Spain. The deity depicted on the obverse is uncertain, but may be Anna Perenna, a sister of Dido, worshiped in Italy. The Annia gens may have claimed descent from her. -- Roman Republican Coinage by Michael H. Crawford
