| Beschrijving keerzijde | Hygieia, goddess of health, standing facing with head turned to the left, her right hand extended over a flaming altar around which a serpent coils, while her left hand holds an offering tray (patera). The composition reflects the standard iconographic type associated with healing sanctuaries in the Peloponnese. The ethnic legend of the Aegians appears in the field, asserting the civic identity of the issuing community. |

Aegium was one of the twelve cities of the Achaean League, and under Roman imperial administration it retained the right to strike local bronze — a privilege that was as much political signal as practical necessity. These provincial issues circulated regionally, supplementing Rome's own coinage in a market where small bronze denominations were perpetually undersupplied. The reign of Marcus Aurelius saw a marked uptick in provincial civic issues across Achaea, likely tied to the administrative reorganization following the Antonine consolidation of Greek civic rights.
The reference IV.1#8097 places this within the Sylloge Nummorum Graecorum corpus for the Peloponnese.
