[QUOTE="Gam3rBlake, post: 7773804, member: 115909"]Well it’s important to remember Roman legionaries only got paid once every 4 months. They also had a much more simple minting process and the tools and coin minters would travel with the Army on campaign. I’m guessing they were all paid on different schedules as well to allow the minters to make more coins. Like maybe Legion A was paid January, May and September while Legion B was paid February, June and October. All just speculation though. It’s a good question.[/QUOTE]
