ACCI, in Hispania Tarraconensis (now Guadix el Viejo), a colony founded by Julius Caesar himself, or by his adopted son Augustus, partly for the veterans of LEGIO VI, Ferrata, and partly for those of LEG. VI Victrix, from which twinship of two legions, this colony (says Vaillant) was called Gemella.
Its coins are limited to the reigns of the three first Emperors, viz., Augustus, Tiberius, and Caligula. On these, Acci is entitled COL. GEM. ACCI. Colonia Gemella Accitana; or in abbreviation C. Iulia G. A. - A first brass of this colony, bears on one side the head of Augustus; and on the other, ACCI. C. I. G. II., which, with the type of two legionary eagles between two ensigns, shows that it was a military colony.- See Akerman 's Coins of Hispania, p. 61, from pl. vii. of which work the above cut is copied.
