This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Richard Walker's Metrology of the Roman Silver Coinage analyzed the silver content of over 5000 Roman denarii, antoniniani, and drachmae using x-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometry. His results have been widely cited and used by scholars in the fields of Roman economic theory and numismatics. This thesis seeks to prove that Walker's XRF results were not only inaccurate, but inconsistently so. Corrosion and surface enrichment on silver-copper coins have caused surface-level elemental examinations, like XRF, to produce incorrect results. The results from Walker's XRF analysis have been compared against results from four individual wet chemical studies. The comparisons display striking, and significant, differences. I am forced to conclude that Walker's data does not in any way align with the true silver content of the coins he analyzed. As a result, this thesis will re-examine several theories and hypotheses posed by scholars who used Walker's data and propose new, more appropriate, uses for Walker and XRF analysis outside of the examination of corroded silver-copper coins.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fineness of Roman imperial and provincial coinage has been regarded as an indicator of the broader fiscal health of the Roman Empire, with the apparent gradual decline of the silver content being treated as evidence for worsening deficits and the contraction of the supply of natural resources from which the coins were made. This book explores the composition of Roman silver coinage of the first century AD, re-examining traditional interpretations in the light of an entirely new programme of analyses of the coins, which illustrates the inadequacy of many earlier analytical projects. It provides new evidence for the supply of materials and refining and minting technology. It can even pinpoint likely episodes of recycling old coins and, when combined with the study of hoards, hints at possible strategies of stockpiling of metal. The creation of reserves bears directly on the question of the adequacy of revenues and fiscal health.
