Connections, Communities, and Coinage : The System of Coin Production in Southern Asia Minor, AD 218-276, Hardback Book

Connections, Communities, and Coinage : The System of Coin Production in Southern Asia Minor, AD 218-276 Hardback

Part of the Numismatic Studies series

Hardback

Description

The chief aim of the book is to address the system of coin production in the regions of Pamphylia, Pisidia and Cilicia during the third century AD.

As in much of the Roman East, cities in these regions produced their own bronze coinage, but that this was in some respects collaboratively achieved is shown by the use of the same obverse dies by two or more cities, as well as the appearance of the same engraving style in multiple cities.

The most comprehensive study of these phenomena to date is the work of Konrad Kraft, Das System der kaiserzeitlichen Munzpragung in Kleinasien, which was published posthumously in 1972.

The book not only examines these questions in an area which was not explored in detail by Kraft, but also radically reappraises his conclusions and opens up new avenues of investigation.
