Cabinet tone. ,Extremely fine In or just before 211 BC an entirely new coinage system is created, based on debased silver than the denarius, which was introduced at about the same time. The coin originally weighed about 3.4 grams (3 scruples), meaning that it was half the value of the quadrigatus, a coin weighing 6 scruples that was by this time no longer produced. Its value was of about 3/4ths of a denarius, however when the quinarius was reintroduced in 101 BC with a similar type, it was valued at 1/2 a denarius. This indicates that victoriatii that were still in circulation at this time were worn and considered to be worth only half a denarius. Hoard evidence indicates that the coin circulated in southern Italy and later Gaul, indicating that the victoriatus was intended as replacement for the drachma or half-nomos instead of as part of the normal Roman coin system. Outside of Rome it circulated as commercial coin so it appears to have had its origin in Illyria, where during Illyrian Wars of 229 BC, 219 BC and 168 BC Rome suppressed the piracy that had made the Adriatic unsafe for Italian commerce. It was never a division of the denarius,as proved by passages where Victoriats are placed side by side with denarii, it disappeared soon from the daily life. The name ÔvictoriatusÕ is an ancient term, attested by ancient sources which record that it was known as a tropaikon (due to the trophy on the reverse) among Greek speakers. The name of the coin leads itself ago from Victoria, which the reverse featured placing a wreath upon a trophy with the inscription "ROMA" in exergue. The obverse of the coin depictes the bust of Iuppiter to whom triumphatores were assimilated.
