The moneyer of c. 54 BCE (RRC 434) is a favorite because of how his coin types are in close dialogue with those of Brutus (RRC 433). And, seem to influence my favorite anti-regal coin type of 53 BCE of Messala (RRC 345).
I’m just thrilled to meet some gossip about Rufus in a letter from Caelius (lover of Clodia) to Cicero.

As far as I can tell this is the only occurance of subrostrani in classical Latin, but the meaning is clear and kind of hilarious.
