What the legends tell The legends of the Roman provincial coinages provided more information than the native issues struck during the Republican time, because they contained more words and more abbreviations, following the late Republican and Imperial models. The wide adoption of the portrait of the emperor in the obverses made an identifying legend necessary. With Augustus, the imperial title on the coin legends was varied, and only became regularized over time, becoming more systematized during the reigns of Tiberius and Caligula.

Local information was displayed on the reverses. This was the most usual place for naming the minting cities, with or without an indication of their legal status; and the magistracies held by those who were in charge of the issue (mostly in the Tarraconensis province); of these, the IIviri were the most recorded; also quattuorviri, aediles, quaestores and praefecti were mentioned, although with much less frequency. The reverse legends also identified divinities and allegorical figures represented in the designs and allow us to know the meaning and intention of the objects and monuments engraved.
