| Beschrijving keerzijde | A tetrastyle temple depicted in frontal elevation, its four columns framing a cult statue of the deified Augustus standing within the cella, resting his right hand upon a spear. The architectural rendering is characteristic of the Pergamene imperial cult coinage, reflecting the city's long-standing role as a major centre of Augustus worship in Asia Minor. The legend ϹΕΒΑϹΤΟΝ ΠΕΡΓΑΜΗΝΟΙ appears in the field, identifying the issuing city. The overall composition emphasises the civic pride of Pergamum in honouring the Sebastoi. |

Pergamum had long cultivated an exceptional relationship with Rome, having famously bequeathed its entire kingdom to the Republic in 133 BC — a voluntary act with no parallel in the ancient world. By Claudius's reign the city was the seat of one of the seven judicial circuits of Asia, which gave its civic authorities both the prestige and the practical motivation to issue honorific bronze coinage. RPC I 2374 belongs to a well-documented group of Pergamene civic bronzes flattering the emperor during the final years of his rule, before Nero's accession in 54 AD rendered such issues obsolete almost immediately.
