It is unusual for these coins to circulate in Britain and there are a large number now known. One thought is that many of these were brought back from travels to the continent (possibvly during the world wars) and have managed to get into the gardens and fields. However it is possible that they could be a true reflection of travel in the Roman world and have been brought in by Roman soldiers. It is only by the systematic recording of t…

Alexandrian billon tetradrachm (i.e. a base silver 4 drachma coin struck in Alexandria in Egypt). These coins were issued under the Roman emperors for (roughly) the first 3 centuries AD, getting progressively baser and smaller. These coins usually have the bust of an emperor (occasionally a wife or son) on the obverse and assorted Classical or Egyptianising themes on the reverse. They exist because the emperors treated Egypt like a private estate and it kept its own currency system right through to the 290's
