• Resumen

  • Three Roman republican denari of the second half of the II B.C. (RRC 263/ 1; 264/ 1; 265/ 1) were object of �restitution� few decades after, at the beginning of the I B.C. (RRC 369/ 1; 370/ 1; 371/ 1). One of them, not casually signed by a personage of the gens Fabia that was very important in the conquest of Valentia�s region, shows the type - the cornucopia with thunderbolts - symbol of the bronze issues of that colony.

    The events that originated the two groups of Roman denari could be the deduction of Valentia�s colony in 138 B.C. and her reconquest in 75 by Pompey during the war against Sertorius.
