This paper analyses, compares and presents numismatic data gathered by examination of Late Roman coin material, from both the display and study collections of the Archaeological Museum in Zagreb, discovered in the area of two Roman castella in the Croatian part of the Danube limes: Teutoburgium (Dalj) and Cornacum (Sotin). This data has been used for constructing the chronology of the coin supply to, and annual coin circulation intensity at, the sites in the set time frame – i.e. from the Valentinian dynasty until the latest late-imperial Roman coin – in order to try to establish the end of the regular coin supply, and thus contribute to better understanding of the socio-economic and administrative changes in the aforesaid area in the late 4th century. All determined coins are catalogued in detail, while data analysis is presented in charts and tables.

This article presents the results of the research of whitepapers for around 22 Initial Coin Offering (ICO) projects and comparative legal analysis of the legislation of 40-member countries of International Anti-Monopoly Network regulating the requirements imposed on advertisement offers for investment into such projects. The topicality of the research is determined by anti-monopoly regulators not identifying the status of whitepapers, while this document contains the elements of advertisement, and ICO projects and their advertisement campaign monitoring not being carried out at the initial stages of ICO. The analysis of requirements for advertising ICO projects and legal status of whitepapers has not been conducted until now. Meanwhile, 99% of current ICOs are fraud for which the participants of the project incur no liability. The research of legal issues related to advertising ICO projects and control over complying of such projects with advertisement requirement carried out by legal government authorities will allow for protection of the weakest party in such business relations, the investor. ; peer-reviewed

Since 1998 the Museo Civico di Rovereto-Archaeological Department has been carrying out excavation campaigns at the site of Loppio - S. Andrea, in the Regione Trentino in Northern Italy. The unearthed masonry structures in the dig areas named A and B are parts of a late antique-early medieval forti ed settlement (castrum), characterized by a sequence of different build- ing phases going back to the 6th and 7th centuries. Many nds belonging to weaponry and soldiers equipment suggest that this site, strategically located along the ancient route going from the Adige Valley to the North Garda Lake, was settled for military reasons and housed soldiers with their families. A total amount of 90 coins has been found, mainly consisting of late Roman bronze specimens which served as local small change currency; Gothic and Byzantine coins in silver and gold are also well attested, offering a very representative view of integration of old 4th-5th centuries issues in the trimetallic 6th century monetary system, as well of their re-use within the Lom- bard society.

THE BRITISH ARMY HAS GREAT EXPERIENCE WITH COUNTER INSURGENCY (COIN) OPERATIONS. HOWEVER, DESPITE THEIR LONG EXPERIENCE IN COIN THE BRITISH HAVE NOT DEVELOPED ANY SET METHODS OF DEALING WITH THE PROBLEM OF INSURGENCY BECAUSE DOCTRINE FOR COIN MUST CONTINUALLY EVOLVE IF IT IS TO REMAIN RELEVANT. THIS ARTICLE SUGGESTS SEVERAL APPROACHES TO COIN INCLUDING THE ATTRITION THEORY AND THE MANOEUVER THEORY. THE ARTICLE ALSO DISCUSSES THE ROLES THAT THE PHYSICAL DESTRUCTION OF THE ENEMY AND THE STRATEGIC APPLICATION OF INFORMATION PLAY IN COIN. FINALLY THE ARTICLE EXAMINES THE OPERATIONAL FRAMEWORK OF COIN.

Edited by Martin Biddle with a catalogue of the known coins of the mint by Yvonne Harvey, this volume records and illustrates the minting of silver pennies in Winchester between the reigns of Alfred the Great and Henry III, a period of three and a half centuries. At the Mint, which was situated in the area of the High Street to the east of where the city's cross now stands, at least 24 million silver pennies (possibly as many as 50 million) were struck. Five and a half thousand survive in museums and collections all over the world. These have been sought out and photographed (some 3200 coins in 6400 images detailing both sides), and minutely catalogued by Yvonne Harvey for this volume. During the period from late in the reign of Alfred to the time of Henry III, dies for striking the coins were produced centrally under royal authority in the most sophisticated system of monetary control at the time in the western world. In this first account of a major English mint to have been made in forty years, a team of leading authorities have studied and analysed the use the Winchester moneyers made of the dies, and together with the size, weight, and the surviving number of coins from each pair of dies, have produced a detailed account of the varying fortunes of the mint over this period. Their results are critical for the economic history of England and the changing status of Winchester over this long period, and provide the richest available source for the history of the name of the city and the personal names of its citizens in the later Anglo-Saxon period.
