The Toolkit for Finds Reporting: Roman Coinage provides guidance for anyone who is
- reporting on a Roman coin assemblage
- planning an archaeological project that is likely to recover Roman coins
- commissioning a Roman coin report
- monitoring a project that has produced a Roman coin assemblage
- training or being trained in the identification, recording and reporting of Roman coins
It is envisaged that this Toolkit will be used in commercial archaeology and by museums, universities, national heritage organisations that commission grant-aided projects, local societies and community groups.
The Toolkit is designed to be used by
- archaeological numismatists reporting on Roman coin assemblages
- trainee archaeological numismatists
- project leads and monitors (ie, project commissioners, consultants and development control archaeologists)
- project executives and project managers
- post-excavation managers
- museum and archive staff
- community groups
Identification and reporting of Roman coins should be undertaken by a specialist, or specialists, with experience of archaeology and numismatics (see Introduction).
