Outline
• money:
      1. 1. pĕcūnia (most gen. term: denoting either money generally or a sum of m.): fatal m. (personified), funesta p., Juv. 1, 113: ready m., praesens p., Pl. Capt. 2, 2, 8; also, numerata p., Cic. Top. 13, 53: a large sum of m., grandis s. magna p., Cic. (v. large, 1, 2): to make m., p. facere, Cic. Div. 1, 49, fin. (so, rem facere, Hor. Ep. 1, 1, 65): the pl. denotes sums of m.: to exact, levy sums of m., pecunias exigere, imperare, Cic. in Pis. 16, 38.
      2. 2. nūmus or nummus (strictly, a piece of m., a coin; but freq. in gen. sense, esp. of ready money): to have plenty of (ready) m., in suis n. multis esse (opp. to, in aere alieno esse), Cic. Verr. 4, 6, 11: to have in ready m. ("cash"), in numis habere, id. Att. 8, 10: the value of m. fluctuated, jactabatur temporibus illis numus, id. Off. 3, 20, 80. (N.B.--As numus denotes properly a single piece of money, grandis numus would denote not a large sum of money, but a large-sized coin.)
      3. 3. mŏnēta (money as coined): false or counterfeit m., falsa m., Plin. 33, 9, 46: old and new m., m. prisca, nova, Ov. F. 1, 222.

(Not in Cic.; for aes circumforaneum, Att. 2, 1, 9, is a playful expression, formed for contrast with aes Corinthium: nor in Liv., except in strict sense, the old copper coinage.)
      6. 6. aurum (poet.): Virg.: Hor.
      7. 7. prĕtium (price paid down: often in bad sense, a bribe): to buy promises with ready m., spem pretio emere, Ter. Ad. 2, 2, 11: worth any m., quantivis preti, ib. 5, 2, 15: Cic.: v. bribe.
