Coins from Tarraconensis
Hispania Tarraconensis was one of three Roman provinces in Hispania. It encompassed much of the Mediterranean coast of modern Spain along with the central plateau.

Its capital was at Tarraco (modern Tarragona, Catalonia). The Cantabrian Wars (29–19 BC) brought all of Iberia under Roman domination, within the Tarraconensis.

Hispania Tarraconensis existed until the invasions of the 5th century, beginning in 409, which encouraged the Basques and Cantabri to revolt, and ended with the establishment of a Visigothic kingdom.

RPC doesn't commit to a date beyond the range of Tiberius' reign, but common sense tells us it can be narrowed down quite a bit, clearly it would come about after his son Drusus passed and it would stop being struck after the boys turned out to be garbage. Several auction houses go with this dating of 23-29 AD.

The heads on the reverse are Nero Julius Caesar and Drusus Caesar, both sons of Germanicus, and adopted sons of Tiberius. Tiberius made it apparent that they were to succeed him, since his natural son "Drusus Julius Caesar" had died in 23 AD. History had other plans in mind of course.

The reverse translates to " Nero and Drusus, Caesars, Quinquennial (Duumvirs) of the Victorious Colony Julia Nova Carthago"
