<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DonnaML, post: 7571245, member: 110350&quot;]I believe it&#039;s now been pretty definitively established that the eruption took place in October rather than August, from a newly-discovered charcoal inscription, among other evidence. See <a href="https://www.reuters.com/article/us-italy-pompeii/charcoal-inscription-points-to-date-change-for-pompeii-eruption-idUSKCN1MQ2CR;" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.reuters.com/article/us-italy-pompeii/charcoal-inscription-points-to-date-change-for-pompeii-eruption-idUSKCN1MQ2CR;" rel="nofollow">https://www.reuters.com/article/us-italy-pompeii/charcoal-inscription-points-to-date-change-for-pompeii-eruption-idUSKCN1MQ2CR;</a> <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-45874858" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-45874858" rel="nofollow">https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-45874858</a>. So the coin you mention would be consistent with that evidence.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
