DENARIO DE PLATA. REVERSO. JINETE CON RODELA Y DOS CABALLOS A LA IZQUIERDA. 100 A.C. (DEPOSITO: MUSEO ARQUEOLOGICO NACIONAL).Portrait medal of Battista Vigo da Rapallo or Baptista Romanus (obverse); a Hand Holding a Branch and a Surgical Instrument. Culture: Italian, Venice or Padua (). Dimensions: Diam. 6.4 cm, wt. 119.59 g. Date: model ca. 1510 (later aftercast).Little can be said of this medal's place of fabrication or of the sitter, although the inscription on the obverse (M. BABTISTA RO. CHIRVRGICVS) indicates that he was a surgeon (Chirurgicus). Gaetano Avignone, who possessed this medal and published it in1872, identified the sitter as Baptista Vigo da Rapallo, assuming that the RO in the inscription was a mistakefor RA. However, the RO may indicate a Roman origin for the sitter, and could be read as "Baptista Romanus." The image on the reverse seems to show a hand holding an oak branch and possibly a surgical instrument or a bridle.
