<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Whizb4ng, post: 1977278, member: 54140&quot;]There was an interesting discussion about this coin on Forvm awhile ago.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am taking this from the Forvm discussion. There is an article by Richard Abdy from the British Museum called The Last Coin in Pompeii that came out in the 2013 Numismatic Chronicle. The coin is a denarius of Titus with Capricorn on Globe reverse. The coin is in poor condition and was originally attributed as TR P VIIII IMP XV COS VII PP which would have placed it after the traditional date of the eruption.&nbsp; The article states that under new examination it is actually TR P VIII IMP XIIII COS VII which dates to before the eruption.</p><p><br /></p><p>I haven&#039;t read the article myself yet and was never able to find a copy of the article online <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> It is a really interesting topic though.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
