<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Victor_Clark, post: 4763566, member: 10613&quot;]These coins celebrate the defeat of the Quinquegentiani (People of the Five Tribes), who were a confederation of Berbers in North Africa. They were under Roman rule, but rebelled in A.D. 289 and were successful for a few years until Maximianus Herculius launched a series of devastating attacks starting in A.D. 297 and finishing in A.D. 298, after which, the Quinquegentiani were never heard of again.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1161416[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Diocletian</p><p>A.D. 298-303</p><p>27x29mm&nbsp; &nbsp; 9.3g</p><p>IMP DIOCLETIANVS P F AVG; Laureate head right.</p><p>SALVIS AVGG ET CAESS FEL KART; Carthage standing facing, head left, holding fruits in both hands.</p><p>In ex.
