Do you know anything about the object of your choice?
Because you need some basic information about it to host the contest.
I'm not playing this round (only posting now and then so the people who are can keep posting) because I can't understand how you can't give straight answers to some simple questions.
When this round finish, maybe I'll have to apologise and I'll congratulate you for your amazing choice.

What is a contorniate?
A contorniate, or contourniate, is a species of medal or medallion of bronze, having a deep furrow on the contour or edge, as if the object had been turned in the lathe. Contourniate medallions were struck in the days of Constantine and his successors.These medals were not struck to be a form of money, but are believed to have been given as gifts,and show the portrait of a variety of earlier emperors.

Who is Sallust?
He was a Roman historian, politician, and novus homo from an Italian plebeian family. Sallust was born at Amiternum in the country of the Sabines and was a popularis, an opponent of the old Roman aristocracy, throughout his career, and later a partisan of Julius Caesar.
