Domitius Calvinus was appointed governor of Spain by Octavian after that province was ceded by Sextus Pompey, son of Pompey the Great. The province was in a state of chaos after years of civil war and the rule of Sextus, who governed as little more than a brigand. The stern Calvinus, formerly magister equitum under Caesar, pacified the province, putting down a revolt by the Ceretani.The minting of these denarii, probably at Osca itself, marks the restoration of Roman order in Spain and the renewed flow of Spanish silver to the Roman treasury.
