American Numismatic Society - Maryse Blet-Lemarquand and Arnaud Suspène (Universite d'Orleans) will present their analysis of a large data set of Roman and contemporary gold coinages. The data sheds light on the gold stocks used at different stages during the development of Roman gold coinage under the Republic and early Empire. The lecture will include a short methodological presentation on LA-ICP-MS, and several case studies regarding Second Punic War gold coinage, Caesar's gold coinage, and Augustus' gold coinage.
