Two small graffiti in the reverse field, one on the left in the shape of a \"1\" and one on the right in the shape of an \"X\". This coin comes from the Mare Nostrum find (1954). This extraordinary find consisting of 426 solidi in an exceptional state of preservation was acquired without us knowing its precise provenance. Nevertheless, we can say that it is a maritime treasure, if we refer to the traces of marine concretions visible on several specimens that survived. The set, which includes mostly coins dating from the end of the Western Roman Empire, is a remarkable testimony of the monetary circulation in this troubled period. The present coin is published in the book dedicated to this find, by I. Vecchi, R. Beale and S. Parkin (2022).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp id=\"headCaption\"\u003eAEL EVDOCIA AVG\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp id=\"reverseCaption\"\u003eIMP XXXXII COS XVII P P \/ COMOB in exergue.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp id=\"weight\"\u003e4.47 gr\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"cdma","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43918513864933,"sku":"1066992","price":4390.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/1655\/7029\/products\/1066992A_55606885-c14f-4999-9c2b-6fd0da1fe7ca.jpg?v=1693955688","url":"https:\/\/www.numiscorner.com\/products\/1066992-coin-aelia-eudocia-solidus-441-450-constantinople-au-50-53-gold","provider":"Numiscorner.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
