| Beschrijving keerzijde | A schematic depiction of a Roman camp gateway (porta principalis) rendered in frontal view, featuring two flanking towers surmounted by battlements and a central arched entrance with a portcullis or door indicated below. The architectural detail, though stylized, clearly conveys the defensive character of the colonial fortifications of Augusta Emerita. The legend COL AVGVSTA EMERITA is distributed around the periphery and partially in the exergue, affirming the colonial status of the issuing city. The overall design is bold and well-centered for a provincial issue, with the gateway serving as a civic emblem of the colony. The reverse field shows characteristic wear and patination consistent with circulation use. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Emerita Augusta — modern Mérida, Spain — was founded around 25 BC as a settlement for veterans of the Cantabrian Wars, the brutal northwestern campaigns that finally secured Iberian submission to Rome. The colony held the right to strike its own bronze coinage under Augustus and continued doing so under Tiberius, making its output one of the few western provincial mints active during his reign. RPC I 26 is among the better-documented issues from this mint, with die studies suggesting relatively modest production runs compared to the colony's Augustan-era output.
