The Metallurgy of Roman Silver Coinage

Beschreibung

The quality of Rome's silver coinage is regarded as an indicator of the financial health of the empire: the traditional view is that quality declined almost continuously due to over-expenditure. The results presented in this book challenge this view, and offer new models supported by new scientific data.
