Episodio 27: La moneda entre los astures #numismática #monedasromanas #ancientcoins

These past few weeks I've been busy analyzing a peculiar coin, a denarius issued in Emerita Augusta during the reign of Publius Carisius after the war of conquest against the Astures. In this episode, I review how coinage was introduced to the Astures and who brought the first mintings. It's a fascinating topic since coins tell us not only about the economy but also about imperial propaganda. On the website, there's a section dedicated entirely to this topic where you'll find related articles, photographs, and analyses of the pieces mentioned in this episode. Go and take a look: https://astures.es/tema/numismatica/
