THE COIN FINDS FROM MĂLĂIEȘTI ROMAN FORT AND BATHS

Abstract

This paper presents 86 coins discovered during the archaeological excavations carried out at the Roman fort and baths at Mălăiesti (19 specimens in the fort and 67 specimens in the baths), as well as 3 coins found by chance in the area of the fort. The earliest of these date from the period of the Roman Republic, while the most recent were issued during the final years of Trajan’s reign, more precisely between February 116 and August 117. The coin finds are very important for the dating of the fort and baths at Mălăiești.
