This book is a detailed collation of the recorded finds of Roman
coins on Indian soil, divided into Republican, Julio-Claudian and
post-Julio-Claudian coins. It also includes chapters on the
historical significance of the scarcity of Roman finds, the absence
of base metal issues in the early empire, the predominance of early
imperial denarii, and the difference in composition between the
Julio-Claudian gold and silver hoards. There is considerable
discussion on slashed gold coins and defaced silver coins and on
imitation Roman coins found in India. Three exhaustive appendices
include a catalogue of finds of Roman coins found in India, the
present location of Roman coins found in India, and Roman coins in
the Madras Central Government Museum. Copublished with the Royal
Numismatic Society.
