<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rrdenarius, post: 2322745, member: 75525&quot;]Some Roman Republican silver denarii were issued with either EX SC or SC, or ex senatus consulto. Because all money was issued by decree of the Roman Senate, the coins with SC are thought to be special issues authorized later in the year. Some examples:</p><p>[ATTACH]469732[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]469733[/ATTACH] </p><p>Roman Republican Denarius</p><p>Mint Rome, 48 BC, Moneyer - T.CARISI</p><p>Obverse&nbsp; &nbsp; Bust of Victory R, draped, wearing ear ring in shape of cross, hair in knot and falling in one lock down her neck, behind - S.C. </p><p>Reverse&nbsp; &nbsp; Victory in quadriga R, horses galloping, she holds wreath in R hand and reins in L.
