The biunx - two uncia - was a rarely used denomination during the Roman Republic.
It was used for both Aes Grave coinage and for struck coins.
It corresponded roughly to the sextans, which was also valued as 2 uncia, but the sextans was used when asses were valued at 12 uncia, and the biunx when assses were valued at 10 uncia.
