Well, I checked off Macrianus and Leo III.
The History of Byzantium podcast has reignited my interest in Byzantine coinage; at least up to 711. I'll have to open my Byzantine Sear to see...
Things had changed during Gallienus' time,but wouldn't a SPQR mintmark in Anatolia make sense? After all, Asia was a senatorial province.
I downloaded some of the book's chapters. Wait, there were Heraclius 40 nummi with the Theup mintmark?!
Thank you; I'll go check out the site. Is there any hoard evidence to approximately what front these enigmatic coins came from. Officina A sure...
I've always been fascinated by the enigmatic Grierson's 'Rome style' folles. Although I don't have it in front of me, I have a Maurice Tiberius...

Very interesting.
Coins from 250-294 seem to stabilize, and even go larger module in some cases. Can one infer that inflation, while extremely severe, was less...
While there's no way to quantify the exact inflation levels of the third and fourth centuries, respectively, and we're involving a long period...
Interesting. Mine was acquired sometime in the 1990s. I still have it, but it's in storage. Not only was it approximately half the weight, it...
