Dupondii and Asi
A copper As was worth four quadrantes
or two semis.
A brass
Dupondius (the same size as the as) was worth two asi.
Two dupondii (or 4 asi) made one sestertius. On the
dupondius, the Emperor was shown wearing a radiate crown (representing the
rays of the sun), as opposed to the usual laurel wreath, to help distinguish it from the similar sized (but different
coloured) as.
