La diffusion des monnaies de l'empire romain dans le monde, d'après le projet de l'université d'Oxford recensant plus de 6 millions de monaies et 15 000 dépôts monétaires romains.
Témoins des échanges commerciaux sous l'empire, les plus éloignées de Rome furent 4 petites monnaies des nummi (pièces de cuivre) découvertes sur l'île d'Okinawa au Japon dans le château médiéval de Katsuren.

Roman coin hoards, from the 'Coinage in the Roman Empire' project — 'hoards containing coinage in use in the Roman Empire between 30 B.C. and A.D. 400.'
Some stimulating discussions in view ... For instance, a heavy concentration in southern India, whereas Ireland has eight?

Extraordinary coin find in Sweden!
Two Roman coins, one of Antoninus Pius, the other from Trajan's reign, have been found on the extremely remote and uninhabited island of Gotska Sandön all the way up in the middle of the Baltic Sea. 😵💫🪙
