Historical city travel guide: Rome, 1st century AD

I am like lots of folks and trying to find interesting stuff while holed-up at home. The British Museum sent me a link to their Rome 1st century AD travel guide. I thought it was interesting. I noted that they used AD and not ACE.

I liked the bronze muffin tin. I wonder where to find one and how much it would cost. They did show two coins. One was RR instead of AD -

Denarius of M. Volteius, Jupiter / Temple of Jupiter Capitolinus, Cr. 385/1
Note - this is a coin from a LEU auction. Mine is not as nice.

My favorite M.VOLT coin is one I have shown often -

Thanks for the virtual tour. Great article.

 

Yeah, I've yet to make the switch, too. Force of habit, I guess--which is a nice euphemism for laziness--but with ancient coins I kind of like the idea of using archaic terminology.
