A Roman coin can be dated by a careful study of history. Since they were not stamped with a year as modern coins, you have to know who and what is pictured on them and from this information you get a close idea of the date of the coin. Remember, coins were not just money in the ancient world, they were also brag books. For example, after Octavian conquered Egypt, he issued coins depicting Egyptian symbols on one side and himself on the other. Inscriptions around the rim also helped to date a coin.
