Guide to Roman Provincial Greek Imperial Ancient Coins and Collection
http://bit.ly/greekimperialarticle for article relating to the coins discussed in this video and much more.
The Roman Empire spread way beyond
Italy in ancient times. The territories under their control were allowed to keep their culture and their
Greek language. They were also allowed to issue coins locally. These coins had
Greek inscriptions on them, a lot of the times and include a myriad of reverses that were important to the local people living in the area.
The standard reference work on these coins is
Greek Imperial Coins And Their Values by
David R. Sear. This work is a great bird's eye view of many Greek Imperial or otherwise known as
Roman Provincial coins. Every emperor is included there, including some cultures that were present during the times of the
Roman empire. Additional references are given to coins that were quasi-autonomous, or in other words, struck without the portrait of the emperor. Some of them are interesting and feature the portrait of the
Roman Senate and
Roma.
Overall, this is an interesting subject to learn about, explore and to collect. The advantage is that you can have reverse designs that you would not have on the Roman
Imperial coins themselves, which featured strictly Roman motifs most of the time. Also to note, that some emperors, which are at times referred to as usurpers only issued coins in the province or city under their control. So you can only have a Roman provincial coin of them. Another benefit of
Roman provincial coins is that they feature portraits of the imperial family which are otherwise not present on Roman Imperial coins. So, in conclusion, Greek Imperial or Roman
Provincial coins made an amazing addition and make any ancient
Roman coin collection more complete and more fascinating.
