January 98 A.D. The most common theme for the quadrans was the modius,
a Roman grain container. This coin was probably redeemable for a modius
of corn. Like gold and silver quinarii, bronze quadrans were not
regularly issued denominations. Rather, they were issued on special
occasions. It is possible that the small denominations were used in
imperial distributions. The heavier sestertii might have inflicted
injury! Suetonius notes that Caligula had used the Basilica Julia as a
platform “from its roof Caligula threw coins among the people.”
(Suetonius, Caligula 37; Josephus xix.11.1.11). Perhaps this small coin
was thrown to the crowd at a similar event by Nerva himself. 16478.

Le quadrans était la plus petite dénomination du

sesterces = 400 as = 1600 quadrans. Au Ier siècle, une mesure de
vin ordinaire coûte un as. Le droit fait référence
à l'approvisionnement de Rome en grains et au service des
Alimenta qui se développe au cours du Ier siècle 'Panem
et circenses' (du Pain et des Jeux) et l'organisation de la
Préfecture de l'Annone. Le modius était une mesure pour
le blé qui valait 16 sextarii ou 8,75 litres. Historique : Le
règne de Nerva, né en 32, fut un moment de transition. Il
marque traditionnellement la fin des Douze Césars de
Suétone et fait la jonction avec la dynastie des Antonins ou
empereurs cooptés. Nerva avait été consul en 71 et
90, il prit son troisième consulat en 97. آgé, Nerva

Concludo osservando
che, per quanto consentito da una valutazione a distanza, le
caratteristiche fisiche, generali e di stile della moneta in esame non
sembrano
discostarsi dallo standard
dell'epoca. A mio avviso,
il valore venale della moneta, nello stato in cui si
trova, dovrebbe aggirarsi attorno ai 30,00€.
Un saluto cordiale.

Dalla tabella si
evince che le
caratteristiche fisiche della moneta di figura (2,9g,
14,25÷15.8mm, 7h) non si
discostano
in modo sostanziale da quelle dei conî d'epoca. La forma
ovalizzata del tondello è piuttosto singolare ma di per
sé non autorizza dubbi sull'autenticità (certo andrebbe
osservata la struttura del bordo, allo stato non disponibile). Si veda,
ad esempio, il link11.

Le
notizie
su
questo
conio
sono
scarse.
Riporto
comunque
quanto
riferisce
BMC:
"I
semissi
e
i
quadranti
non
datati
di
solito
non
portano
il ritratto dell'imperatore. I tipi del
semisse alludono al governo del mondo (il timone sul globo) e alla
giustizia (testa della Giustizia?), quelli dei quadranti alludono alla
prosperità (il caduceo) e ai buoni raccolti (moggio e spighe).
