Denarius (369 words)
The denarius was first struck in 211 BC during the Roman Republic, valued at 10 asses, giving the denarius its name which translates to "containing ten".
In 118 BC it was re-tariffed at 16 asses, to reflect the decrease in size of the as.
The denarius continued to be the main coin of the empire until it was replaced by the antoninianus in the middle of the 3rd century AD.
