Roman Coins from Aldborough: A Re-assessment and Overview

Abstract

Abstract This paper presents an analysis and overview of some two thousand Roman coins recovered from Aldborough and close environs. It is part of an on-going programme of publication and re-assessment by the author of coinage from major sites along the line of Roman Dere Street (including York, Catterick, Piercebridge, Binchester, and Corbridge); and it is also intended to provide a companion-piece to the extensive programme of survey and excavation at Aldborough currently being undertaken by Prof. Martin Millett and Rose Ferraby of Cambridge University.
