<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cmezner, post: 4987184, member: 87809&quot;]If you look it up at coinarchives you can find at least 5 sold up to now in auctions. Doesn&#039;t seem to be less common.</p><p><br /></p><p>It is an X, not a star and according to Reinhard Wolters cited in the Künker auction, p.36 at&nbsp; <a href="https://issuu.com/archaeologymatters/docs/kunker_eauction_31__29-30.10.2014_" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://issuu.com/archaeologymatters/docs/kunker_eauction_31__29-30.10.2014_" rel="nofollow">https://issuu.com/archaeologymatters/docs/kunker_eauction_31__29-30.10.2014_</a></p><p><br /></p><p>this type celebrates the Lex Valeria Cornelia and was struck 5 AD in Lugdunum or even in Rome. This law established 10 voting centuria for the preselection of Consuls and Praetor. The X on the reverse and the use of the Gaius/Lucius type after the death of Augustus&#039; grandson is explained by the naming of the 10th Centuria fafter Gaius and Lucius Caesares. For dating, and mint see Wolters, &quot;Gaius und Lucius Caesares als designierte Konsuln und principes iuventutis&quot;. Lex Valeria Cornelia and RIC I² 205 ff., in: Chiron 32 (2002), p. 297 ff. &quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
