These large and intricate issues have always been fascinating for the French and German collectors alike but should be of interest to every roman numismatist : these emperors, although independent from Rome, maintained "romanity" against the Barbarians and never considered themselves as "foreign" to Rome.
Jerome Mairat has done a wonderfull work, based on the most up-to-date research to make the issues as clear as possible and to provide the current answers to the numerous problems that are still discussed. His in-depth presentation is the state of the art on the period.
It also includes a full discussed bibliography and a chronology.
