| Beschrijving keerzijde | A bull (Bos taurus) depicted standing in profile facing right, rendered in a sturdy, stylized manner characteristic of Hispano-Roman provincial coinage. The animal occupies the central field of the reverse. The surrounding Latin legend attributes the issue to the local duoviri, magistrates responsible for the municipal coinage of Calagurris, with their names distributed around the periphery: M · C · I L · FVL · SPARSO and L · SATVRNINO II VIR. The composition reflects the standard reverse type employed at Calagurris under Tiberius to assert civic identity and Roman administrative authority. |

Calagurris — modern Calahorra in La Rioja — was one of the few Hispanic municipia granted the right to strike bronze coinage under Augustus and Tiberius, a privilege that dried up entirely after Caligula ended provincial bronze production across the West. The countermark S punched onto this piece most likely served as a revalidation mark, confirming the coin's continued acceptability in local exchange well after original issue — a common administrative response to coinage shortages in the Iberian interior where fresh supply from Rome arrived slowly and irregularly.
