Perseus and Andromeda: one moving motif in the Roman province coinage

Summary/Abstract: The subject of this publication is two coins of the roman city of Deultum, one of the most important centres at the Black sea during the Roman epoch. The presented coins bear the images of Perseus and Andromeda on the reverse. The coins - one of Alexander Severus (222 - 235) and one of Philipus Arab (244 - 249) are published for the first time.
