Roman coins: Roman Republic and Roman Imperial issues

Roman coinage spans well over a thousand years, from the early Roman Republic through to the later Empire. Designs changed dramatically over time, from early Republican types and family names to portrait issues of emperors and empresses, alongside gods, personifications, buildings, and symbols of Roman power. Many coins show the wear you would expect from pieces that circulated in the ancient world, and the combination of portraits, legends, and reverse designs is a big part of what makes Roman coins so collectable today.
