The bes (plural bessēs) was an Ancient Roman bronze coin produced during the Roman Republic. Valued at two thirds of an as (eight unciae), it was only produced in 126 BC by C. Cassius in combination with the dodrans, another very rare denomination which was valued at three quarters of an as (nine unciae).
