I thought I saw some made around 10 A.D. with the Augustus and Agrippa type, but I could be wrong. Thank you for this interesting fact though.
Coins bearing the image of
Agrippa ceased to be minted with
his death in 12 BC. There are, of course,
his posthumous coins, but not from the times of
Augustus.
Oh that is interesting indeed. Is that true that there were no As denomination coins after 4 B.C. until 11 A.D.?
The circulation of small coin
denominations in the 1st century BC / 1st century AD is much more complicated than it seems. In addition to
standard denominations minted in
Rome, a lot of
provincial coins circulated - for example, there are many coins from
Gaul in the finds from Pompeii. If you are interested in the topic, you can read e.g.
"Currency and exchange in ancient Pompeii: coins from the AAPP excavations at Regio vi, Insula 1" by R.
Hobbs.
In general, August's coinage is full of rapid changes affecting the next decades. The
denarii ceased to be minted in
Rome in 12 BC, which also ended the series of silver coins bearing the names of tresviri monetales. At the same time, in 15 BC, a
mint was opened in
Lugdunum, where
denarii without these names were minted. Only bronze coins remained in
Rome, and these bore the names of tresviri monetales until 4 BC. However, when the minting of them resumed in AD 11, they were, as before,
denarii - stripped of these names. This was the final deprivation of significance of the former
republican college
tresviri aere argento auro flando feriundo, which, however, survived for some time.
