The Coin Types of Imperial Rome

With 28 Plates and 2 Synoptical Tables

Omschrijving

Dive into the fascinating coinage types of the ancient Romans. In ancient Rome, coins were not just a symbol of exchange for goods or services. They were often used to mark events, advertise, or make known the identity of the current ruler. However, the features on their coins didn't just depict their rulers, they depicted mythical gods and goddesses. The Romans had a fascinating mythology, and it influenced their coinage system as much as their politics or history. You are about to discover not just the unlikely gods and goddesses that made it to the Roman coins, but the why, when, significance, time period, and under whose rule these coins were created. The Romans have a fascinating history, and if these coins existed today, they would say a lot. However, this book more than makes up for it. And it is perfect for anyone who loves Roman history and mythology.
