Latin Provincial Mint Names List

This list features only Provincial Coins Legends of the Roman Empire in Latin. Please note that in these times many cities used variations upon their legend. I have used brackets to denote the various options. So if a legend has brackets more than one options is possible. Acco (Ptolemais) used COL PTOL and COLONIA PTOLEMAIS : therefore COL(ONIA) PTOL(EMAIS) in SiteSpeak. As you can see, this list was compiled in my spare time so judge kindly.

For my Greek provinicial coin mints list sorted to the greek alphabet go here. For the same list sorted to the latin alphabet go here.

P.s. : Remember that what you see on a coin is the name of the issuing city (normally) which does not necessarily imply they were physically made there. There are obverse dies shared for as many as 6 cities (maybe more).
