- )
Dicdef accompanied by a series of irrelevant calculations involving various seeds and units of weight. (The sestertium was a monetary unit of account and never embodied in any physical form.) The use of the term to refer to an amount equivalent to 1000 sesterces is discussed in the article

- Delete and redirect to sestertius. This seems to be a misunderstanding of the Latin phrase as having a separate meaning, as if we needed an article dollars to fully explain phrases like thousands of dollars. The contextual discussion in sestertius is sufficient. --Dhartung | Talk 01:15, 4 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete and redirect to sestertius, this article is only a misunderstanding of the term. The cited source does not verify the article. JIP | Talk 05:28, 4 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to sestertius per above; sestertium is a case-form, and therefore a likely reasonable search term. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 16:11, 4 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to maintain the search term, but there isn't anthing worth merging. TravellingCarithe Busy Bee 19:04, 4 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
