<p>[QUOTE="seth77, post: 7443232, member: 56653"]You're welcome, both Estiot and Mairat are canon for the numismatics of the 270s and later. As for the conflicts in the West in 275, there might not have been actual "invasions" as there had previously been in the Lower Danube era from 250 onward, but rather revolts that were centered around former nomadic communities inside the borders of the Empire. The title Gothicus Maximus shouldn't be taken at face value as we can't be certain of the actual identity of the rebels but it is likely that at least some Gothic component had to be part of that or at least perceived as part of that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
