Extract

The coins which form the basis for this discussion, summarized in Tables I to IV (facing p. 252), have been published in more detail in the Numismatic Chronicle (Southern France 1964, northern Italy 1971, northern France 1972) and in Britannia iii, 269-76, where full details of the nature, location and peculiarities of the groups may be found, together with a subjective estimate of each group's archaeological reliability. For ease of reference the full names of the groups, and the periods into which the coinage has been divided is repeated:
