The impressive Trier Gold Hoard is the largest #Roman gold hoard ever discovered. It comprises more than 2650 aurei (gold coins) with a total weight of about 18.5 kilogram. The aurei were hidden in 196 AD during the revolt of Clodius Albinus against emperor Septimius Severus. The hoard was discovered in 1993 during construction works.
