520    "The Roman monetary system was highly complex. It involved
       official Roman coins in both silver and bronze, which some
       provinces produced while others imported them from mints 
       in Rome and elsewhere, as well as, in the east, a range of
       civic coinages. This is a comprehensive study of the 
       workings of the system in the Eastern provinces from the 
       Augustan period to the third century AD, when the Roman 
       empire suffered a monetary and economic crisis. The 
       eastern provinces exemplify the full complexity of the 
       system, but comparisons are made with evidence from the 
       western provinces as well as with appropriate case studies
       from other historical times and places. The book will be 
       essential for all Roman historians and numismatists and of
       interest to a broader range of historians of economics and
       finance"--|cProvided by publisher.
