A silver Roman half-siliqua, anonymous issue, c.367-394 AD. Reverse: X V within a wreath. As Bendall, 2003: no. 3.<\/p>
\n<\/p>\n\n
In a forthcoming note on these anonymous 4th century half-siliquae, Roger Bland notes that the vota reverse may be significant in terms of the dating of these issues, potentially linking it to the 15th anniversay of Valentinian II (388-389 AD) or the 15th anniversary of Theodosius II (392-393 AD). These were coins struck in small quantity during the latter half of the 4th century, although it remains uncertain precisely why they were issued.<\/p>","notes":null,"reuse":null,"created":"2010-10-06 09:38:58","updated":"2010-10-29 13:47:00","secwfstage":"4","findofnote":null,"objecttypecert":null,"datefound1":null,"datefound2":null,"inscription":null,"disccircum":null,"museumAccession":null,"subsequentAction":"1","objectCertainty":null,"dateFromCertainty":"1","dateToCertainty":"1","dateFoundFromCertainty":null,"dateFoundToCertainty":null,"subPeriodFrom":null,"subPeriodTo":null,"createdBy":"773","obverse_description":"Helmeted and draped bust of Roma right, seen from the front","obverse_inscription":"No legend","reverse_description":"X V within a wreath","reverse_inscription":"No legend","denomination":"Half-siliqua","degree_of_wear":null,"allen_type":null,"va_type":null,"mack":null,"reeceID":"21","die":"6","wearID":null,"moneyer":null,"revtypeID":null,"categoryID":null,"typeID":null,"tribeID":null,"status":"Regular","rulerQualifier":null,"denominationQualifier":"1","mintQualifier":"1","dieAxisCertainty":"1","initialMark":null,"reverseMintMark":"-\/\/A Q","statusQualifier":"1","reason":null,"username":"abrown","fullname":"Andrew Brown","institution":"SF","usernameUpdate":"abrown","fullnameUpdate":"Andrew Brown","primaryMaterial":"Silver","secondaryMaterial":null,"decoration":null,"style":null,"manufacture":"Struck or hammered","surfaceTreatment":null,"completeness":"Complete","preservation":null,"cert":null,"periodFrom":"ROMAN","periodTo":"ROMAN","discmethod":"Metal detector","tribe":null,"region":null,"area":null,"ruler1":"Uncertain - 4th century","ruler2":null,"period_name":"Period 21","date_range":"388-402","mint_name":"Aquileia (Italy)","wear":null,"category":null,"type":null,"reverseType":null,"county":"CAMBRIDGESHIRE","district":"SOUTH CAMBRIDGESHIRE","knownas":"Teversham","gridRefSource":"From Map"},{"old_findID":"DOR-ED7858","id":"396964","uniqueID":"PAS4C2ED785001FEA","objecttype":"COIN","classification":"Nummus","subclass":null,"length":null,"height":null,"width":null,"thickness":null,"diameter":"14.44","quantity":"1","other_ref":"SCMS 020332","treasureID":null,"broadperiod":"ROMAN","numdate1":"341","numdate2":"346","culture":null,"description":"
