Website Monnaies de l’Empire Romain – Roman Imperial Coinage 268-276 AD
This website http://www.ric.mom.fr forms the preliminary step to the printed revision of the Roman Imperial Coinage V.1,
part 2. The database presented here applies to the imperial reigns from AD 268 until 276, that is, the reigns of Claudius
Gothicus, Quintillus, Aurelian, Tacitus, and Florianus, as well as the coinage of the princes of Palmyra, Vabalathus and
Zenobia, issued by the imperial mint of Antioch. Thus, the period covers an important phase in the
‘3rd century crisis’ encountered by the Roman Empire, from the reign which symbolises its most critical point (Claudius
Gothicus) to those which implemented the necessary reform (Aurelian and his successors).
The documentation assembled here is based chiefly on 12 main institutional collections of reference (Paris, London, Oxford, Vienna,
Copenhagen, Milan, Budapest, Munich, Brussels, Cambridge, Berlin, and New York)
which have been exhaustively studied and digitized by agreement with their curators. They
are hereby warmly thanked, for without them this work could never have been realised.
The database is largely completed by some institutional collections looked at more superficially (Zagreb, Luxembourg,
Trier, …); the private collections to which their owners gave us access; the coin hoards, if it is possible to use their publication;
the material from sales catalogues, sales online, etc.
In order to be included in the corpus, all coin types must have been checked by direct examination, that is to say, inspected
visually or verified by photographs.The database holds to date more than 4,500 entries (i.e. revised RIC numbers), based on
104,000 coins and more than 80,000 digital photographs.
It is searchable by simple, advanced (through 15 descriptive fields and scroll menus) and iconographic search.
As for this period of inflation and demultiplication in the minting network, it is hard to be exhaustive, we have left open
possibilities for feedback and additional information or corrections from the scientific community.
The project has been financed by programmes of the Centre
national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS), for which Sylviane Estiot is responsible, PICS (Programme international
de coopération scientifique) Nummi et Cimelia, ANR (Agence
nationale de la recherche) programme MONetA. We would
like to thank warmly the members of the group who spent
so much time and energy in travelling with us to gather the
documentation, Marie-Laure Le Brazidec, Vincent Drost, Philipppe Gysen and Pierre Zanchi.

wirklich sehr lobenswert, die datenbasis gleich online zu stellen!
wenn mich nicht alles täuscht, dann habe ich gestern einen gothicus in konz gekauft, der noch nicht in diesen daten zu finden ist!
die AV-legende lautet: IMP C M AVR CLAVDIUS AVG; die RV-legende VIRTVTI AVG, im abschnitt SPQR.

nachdem ich jetzt ein bisschen mit den tollen suchfunktionen des "advanced search" rumgespielt habe, konnte ich feststellen, dass nicht alles was SPQR im abschnitt hat aus cyzicus stammt (wie bei gallienus)!
offensichtlich gab´s auch eine prägestätte in Smyrna, und dort habe ich ihn unter der temp nr. 822 gefunden!
