Facade of the Macellum Magnum; MAC AVG above; S-C across fields; in exergue, II (mark of value). RIC I (2nd ed.) 184. AE. 11.31 g. 27 mm. R. Rare. Extremely fascinating architectural issue. Minor restoration on obverse. Slightly bent. VF/About VF. This Dupondius, one of the most famous architectural types in 1st century coinage, shows us the facade of the Macellum Magnum, the great marketplace built by Nero on the Caelian Hill, the work of architects Severus and Celer, completed in 59 AD. The monumental two-story building, topped by a dome just slightly smaller than that of the Pantheon, was the largest commercial center in the Roman world and housed an abattoir, outlets selling live and slaughtered livestock, fish, basic necessities and luxury goods, tabernae, bankers' and money changers' stores as well as a votive shrine dedicated to Ceres. Its location seems to correspond to that of the church of St. Stephen Rotundus, which would have been erected on the remains of its foundations by Pope Simplicius in the second half of the 5th century.

This association between Caesar's deification and the comet resurfaced when Augustus proposed the Saecular Games in 17 BC, and the 'Julian star' was depicted on coins leading up to the event.
