Benefactor LONGINUS Posted August 23, 2023 · Benefactor Benefactor Share Posted August 23, 2023 (edited) August 23 is the anniversary of the death of Gnaeus Julius Agricola in 93 AD. I’ve chosen today to post my first Celtic coin from Britain and a poster featuring the general and one of his forts. I’d love to see your Celtic coins from Britain and your Roman coins of the period.
