Description: | Seven copper-alloy Roman radiate 'minim' coins, dating from AD 260-296 (Reece period 14). Six reverse types illegible and one depicting a wolf and the letters XL. Mint unknown. The 'minim' is formed by the cutting down of the larger radiate coin. It is possible that some of the coins are barbarous radiates due to the unclear reverse.Such radiate 'minim' coins were circulated throughout Roman Britain during the later imperial period, particularly in the 3rd century.The coins have diameters ranging from 7.50 mm to 10.89 mm collective weight 4.32 grams.
