<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Alegandron, post: 2545147, member: 51347&quot;]Just like military emergency money. The US counter-stamped our currency with HAWAII in the territory of Hawaii during WWII in case it was overrun by Japanese. The US could cancel that currency should that happen. For the Romans, having valuable bullion coins in mass quantities traveling with a Legion, near hostle territory would be at risk with hostiles across the border. So, devalue the issue as token money that can be used in lieau of silver or gold. When you are away from the border, or hostile areas, then redeem the Limes for bonafide silver or gold coinage.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
