Description

The Portable Antiquities Scheme's vast collection of Roman coinage objects offers a unique window into the province of Roman Britain. Spanning over 300,000 single finds and several thousand hoards, this dataset provides a comprehensive perspective on the province's interaction with the Roman Empire. By exploring 50 key finds, it is possible to gain insights into various aspects of Roman Britain, from the conquest in AD 43 to the Roman withdrawal around AD 410. This collection of Roman coinage objects provides a wide coverage of the entire province, revealing evidence for early military activity, the development of the rural landscape, and the socio-political and cultural evolution of the province. The Portable Antiquities Scheme's dataset offers a valuable resource for examining key elements of Roman Britain, such as religion, the economy, and British identity. Dr Andrew Brown, Deputy National Finds Advisor for Iron Age and Roman coinage at the Portable Antiquities Scheme/British Museum, has curated this collection of Roman coinage objects. With 96 pages of in-depth analysis, this book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Roman Britain and its history.
