Æ As (11.08 gm). Lugdunum mint. Laureate head of Tiberius right / Front elevation of the Altar of Lugdunum, decorated with the corona civica between laurels, these being flanked by nude male figures; to left and right, Victories on columns, facing one another. RIC I 245 (Augustus); BMCRE 585; Cohen 37. Near VF/VG. 719039 Under Augustus' comprehensive reform of the monetary system a plentiful supply of aes coinage, in a range of denominations, was made available to the Roman populace for the first time in many years. Two metals were utilized — orichalcum (brass) for the more valuable denominations, copper for the lesser values. Many mints had been active during the decades of civil war which had preceded the establishment of the principate and this situation prevailed in the early years of Augustus' reign. Gradually, however, the production of precious metal coinage came to be concentrated at the great Gallic mint of Lugdunum (modern Lyon) while the regular aes denominations were issued principally from Rome. The supply of aes was augmented by the products of several important provincial establishments and this handsome as (1/64th of the silver denarius) was issued from Lugdunum in the closing years of Augustus' long reign. Parallel issues were also produced in the name of Augustus, Tiberius' step-father. The reverse features the celebrated Altar of Lugdunum which had been dedicated by Augustus on August 1st, 10 BC.
