Chronologia napływu denarów rzymskich z I-III wieku na ziemie Polski w świetle analizy nowego materiału ze znalezisk drobnych

Based on the small finds of Roman denarii dating back to the first-third centuries, coming from the area of Poland, registered in 2004–2011 and compared to the composition of coin hoards of the same nominal value from the same area, one can venture to specify the chronology of these denarii infl ow more precisely. Two main inflow waves of denarii from the first-second centuries to the lands of the present-day Poland can be dated to the period from the second half of Antoninus Pius’ reign (138–161) to the early days of Marcus Aurelius’ reign (161–180) and the first years of Septimius Severus’ reign (193–211). When denarii are concerned alone, those waves were preceded by smaller ones, most probably during Trajan’s reign (98–117) and at the turn of Hadrian’s (117–138) and Antoninus Pius’ reigns. Few denarii from the third century, mixed with a small number of older denarii to some extent, came probably in the first half of the third century.
