<p>[QUOTE="Tejas, post: 6640835, member: 84905"]I think the Romans accepted coinage at its intrinsic value right to the end of the Empire. The monetary system was basically split in a gold coinage with intrinsic value, a silver coinage that was prone to inflation (i.e. drop in standard) and even hyperinflation and an outright fiat coinage in bronze which had no real intrinsic value (regardless of different weights) and which was accepted at its nominal value.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
