RPC Volumes V.2 and V.3 Now Available Online

The aim of the Roman Provincial Coinage project is to produce a standard typology of the provincial coinage of the Roman Empire. This represents the first systematic treatment of the civic coinage at the height of the Roman empire, and will have great importance for the study of cultural, religious, political, economic, and administrative history at both a local and an imperial level.

The new parts include over 11,000 type descriptions and over 45,000 coins from 317 cities. The geography extends from Bithynia to Egypt. Further additions and corrections will be incorporated into the printed volume. Please submit feedback through RPC online.

  • Volume V.2 will be edited by A. Hostein and J. Mairat, with M. Amandry, F. Delrieux. and P.-O. Hochard.
  • Volume V.3 will by edited A. Burnett, with M. Amandry, L. Bricault, J. Mairat, S. Matthies, and D. Miebach.

Please note that the European provinces will be covered in Volume V.1, which is not yet online. The team kindly ask you to wait until its release before submitting feedback on that part of Volume V.
