Description

The Amber Route was an ancient trade route linking the Baltic coast with
the Mediterranean region, fostering the growth of cities and the exchange of goods,
cultures, and ideas. Hungary, the third coin in the series, refers to the Roman section
of this route, which ran along the Danube through the lands of ancient Pannonia.
The design features Emperor Hadrian and a Roman merchant, while a natural
amber insert highlights the importance of the route that connected distant worlds
for centuries. Discover the story of this historic road and collect all nine coins
