Note
L.-P. Delestrée, 'Les premières monnaies gallo-romaines portant le nom d'A. Hirtius', RBN CLXV (2019), pp. 243-51, offers a new approach of the coinage of Hirtius, legate of Caesar, and of the series with the name of Hirtius (RPC 501 and 503a-d). Types, distribution areas and legends are questioned.
