The Roman Empire produced a large array of gold, silver, and bronze coinage for several centuries. The bronze coinage can be interesting to examine, because the term “bronze” did not always mean an elemental composition of only copper and tin. We have examined a series of Roman coins by energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence to determine their elemental composition. Findings will be presented and discussed.
