CONSI'DIUS. There were two persons of this name who espoused Pompey's party in the civil war, and who are spoken of under CONSIDIUS, Nos. 8 and 9. The annexed coin, however, seems to refer to neither of them. It bears on the obverse the head of Venus, with C. CONSIDI NONIANI; and, on the reverse, a temple on the top of a mountain, on which is written, ERVC., the mountain itself being surrounded with fortifications. The coins seem to refer to the temple of Venus at Eryx, in Sicily, which was probably repaired by this C. Considius Nonianus, at the command of the senate.
