Austria Finishes the Coin Series Commemorating Rome at the Danube

Rome expanded its empire, but for many years stopped at the Danube.  The inhabitants across the Danube were skilled at sword making, among other things, so a peaceful relationship existed for many years with the Romans buying superior swords from the locals.  The Austrian Mint has now finished its three year, six coin silver 20 Euro coin series commemorating the Romans at the Danube.  On the obverse of each coin is a different Roman emperor or other significant figure, while an image honoring the location appears on the reverse.

The coins are:

Reverse, Virunum; Obverse, Claudius

Reverse, Vindobona; Obverse, Marcus Aurilius

Reverse, Carnuntum, Obverse, Septimus Severus

Reverse, Aguntum; Obverse, Constantius II

Reverse, Lauriacum; Obverse Saint Florian

Reverse, Brigantium; Obverse, Valentinian
