<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Pellinore, post: 3120640, member: 74834&quot;]Thanks for that interesting Academia link. So, the equipment of the mint was taken, and so were its workers (unwillingly or even willingly, for they usually were slaves). Then back in their Chernyakov and Wielbark territory, the raiders would issue gold coins with the AE dies, to enhance prestige (probably not for circulation). </p><p><br /></p><p>The pictures in the article are not very clear.

Would it be coined in Troas after 262, or imitated in Volhynia?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]793942[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
