Beschrijving keerzijde A detailed low-relief scene depicting daily commercial life in the Roman town of Aguntum. In the foreground, a merchant or trader is shown with a large wicker basket and an assortment of ceramic amphorae and vessels arranged on a table or counter. Two togated figures stand conversing to the right, with additional figures and Roman architectural structures visible in the background, suggesting a market or forum setting. The inscription AGUNTUM appears in the upper field of the coin, arching along the inner border. The overall composition conveys a vivid and archaeologically informed tableau of Roman provincial life.

Aanvullende informatie

Aguntum, located near modern Dölsach in East Tyrol, was the only municipium in what is now Austria during the Roman period — a formal status granted likely under Claudius in the first century AD. The site was excavated seriously only from the mid-twentieth century onward, and much of it remains unexcavated beneath agricultural land. Austria's "Römische Städte" silver series, of which this is a part, used coinage to draw attention to archaeological sites with limited public visibility.

A catastrophic flood in the late fifth or early sixth century effectively ended occupation at Aguntum.
