Description
This collection consists of two bronze coins with the two most concise military motifs that were ever minted onto Roman coins.
Depicted on one of them is a camp gate, the other coin features two legionnaires bearing standards. The military camp as an early form of a barracks represents protection and security of the nearby cities and settlements. The standards are symbols of the fame and the strength of the associated task force.
