Note 202 — XXXII (A II, 6)
Evelyn S. (Evelyn Shirley) Shuckburgh translation
The money due from the treasury to Q. Cicero in Asia. He wants it to be paid in Roman currency (denarii), not in Asiatic coins (cistophori), a vast amount of which Pompey had brought home and deposited in the treasury. So an Indian official might like sovereigns instead of rupees if he could get them.
