Bes (coin)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The bes was an Ancient Roman bronze coin produced during the Roman Republic. The bes, valued at two-thirds of an as (8 unciae), was only produced in 126 BC by C. Cassius in combination with the dodrans, another very rare denomination which was valued at three-fourths of an as.
