| Beschrijving voorzijde | An imaginary Roman street scene rendered in high relief occupies the full field. In the left foreground, a blacksmith stands at his anvil working Noric iron into swords, with finished blades displayed prominently before him. In the middle ground, a Roman two-wheeled wagon drawn by two horses passes before the colonnaded portico of a temple, while the imposing walls and tiled roof of a grand basilica rise in the background. A Greek meander frieze runs along the lower register, above which the city name VIRUNUM appears in the exergue. The engraver's signature H. WÄHNER is visible in the lower right field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Virunum was the Roman provincial capital of Noricum, located on the Zollfeld plain in what is now Carinthia — a city that peaked in the second century AD before gradual abandonment left it largely unexcavated beneath agricultural land. Austria's archaeological silver series has used individual Roman sites as anchors for broader numismatic storytelling, and Virunum earned its place partly because systematic excavation there remains politically and logistically complicated, making the coin itself a more accessible record than the dig reports.
