Marcus Fannius C.f. was one of the moneyers for the year 123 BC. According to Crawford, he is perhaps the son of C. Fannius, the Consul for 122 BC, or C. Fannius, Praetor in 118 BC.
Gens Fannia was a plebeian family at Rome. No members of this gens are mentioned in Roman history prior to the second century BC, and the first who obtained the consulship was Gaius Fannius Strabo, in BC 161.
The only praenomina associated with the Fannii are Gaius, Marcus, and Lucius.
