Lollius Palikanus AR Denarius. Rome, 45 BC. Pearl-diademed head of Libertas to right; LIBERTA[TIS] downwards behind / Rostra, on which stands subsellium (tribune's bench); PALIKAN[VS] above. Crawford 473/1; Sydenham 960; CRI 86; BMCRR Rome 4011; RSC Lollia 2. 3.41g, 20mm, 9h.

Very Fine.

From a private UK Collection.

This type, like the others issued by Lollius, may relate to the vigorous and successful exertions of the tribune M. Lollius Palikanus (possibly the moneyer's father) to obtain for the tribunes the restoration of those powers and privileges of which they had been deprived by Sulla.
