Abstract

The joint Yugoslav and American excavations at Sirmium, modern Sremska Mitrovica, yielded more than 2000 Roman coins, the great majority from the fourth century, with peaks in 351 to 361 and 364 to 378. Both fall in periods of heavy inflation, the first also in a period of intense military activity. Using the mint marks, the paper asks whether the same holds for the second; nearly three quarters of the pieces come from Siscia.
