Typenatlas der römischen Reichsprägung von Augustus bis Aemilianus

The aim of the project TAR is to provide a systematic analysis of the reverse typology of Roman imperial coins of the Principate. The third and final volume of the work covers animals, mythical creatures, plants and objects not only as main coin motives, but also as secondary attributes. The work is organised iconographically, not according to the accompanying inscriptions, since the legends often do not directly explain the types. The description of each type is followed by indications on chronology and on the denominations in which it was struck; the legends are listed in tables with references for each type. All types are illustrated on 86 plates. This new analysis of the reverse types of Roman imperial coins will be a most useful tool for numismatists, and will also provide researchers from neighbouring disciplines with a key to interpreting one of the most important primary sources for Roman culture.
