Bacchus2 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2891 Posts	Posted 12/31/2014 05:22 am D.L.Vagi's "Coinage and History of the Roman Empire" set of two books is not great on the actual coins (really just an overview) but is very good at giving you a potted history of the Empire(s). What's interesting is that they are so heavy (?) They must be printed on the most dense paper available.

chuy1530 Pillar of the Community United States 513 Posts	Posted 12/31/2014 3:33 pm Really the Wikipedia pages are pretty good for Roman history, and if you're looking for an overview you can just sit there all day and read about different wars, emperors, territories, etc. Report this Post to the Staff
pishpash Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 3626 Posts	Posted 12/31/2014 3:37 pm Look at the coins on TIFs site, some of the coins have stories, and there are stories on the http://www.colosseocollection.com/p...1DE#hf2181de site also. If I win the lottery I am going to get one of those coins found buried at Pompeii. Report this Post to the Staff
Topcat7 Pillar of the Community 1121 Posts	Posted 12/31/2014 3:50 pm Wouldn't that be great (P.P.) ? I wish (too). However, I fear that I might have to make do with a coin that was minted around that time. Report this Post to the Staff
Ben Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 4208 Posts	Posted 12/31/2014 7:27 pm Coins from Pompeii are very numerous, but closely guarded. Heres an interesting piece about the date of the eruption compared to the coinage found in the ash. A set I was going to go after was the Five Good Emperors (hopefully in Silver) because of the period they represent but the price got me. I have got a copy of Marcus Aurelius' texts somewhere. Also, TIF has an EID MAR? Report this Post to the Staff
