Notes: Denarii of Mark Antony were slightly debased. Therefore, they survived the various debasements from the reign of Nero onwards. It is not unusual to find worn Mark Antony denarii in 3rd century hoards – for example, there were 260 such coins in the Shapwick hoard of 9,238 silver denarii found in Somerset in 1998.
