[QUOTE="Herberto, post: 12779650, member: 74222"]I was wondering and have a specific question about Byzantine coinage that only some few can answer. Or maybe there will be none. As you know the main Byzantine mint-cities in 500s were like this: [ATTACH=full]1528499[/ATTACH] Now I am wondering: Most coins circulating in Israel/Lebanon/Syria, were they “Theupo”-minted? - Or was it more like 45% “Theupo”-minted and 45% “Con”-minted and 10% from other mints? And how about Carthage in Tunesia? Most coins circulating there were “Car”-minted? Or was it like 45% “Car”-minted and 45% “Con”-minted? Do we have an idea how the distribution was in each area? When we find a hoard of 100 Byzantine coins in Tunis or Istanbul, what tend the distributions of the coins to be? I hope people understand my question. In case one has a definitive answer, I would be glad to hear it. Thanks.[/QUOTE]
