The Siliqua denomination
The siliqua is the modern name given (without any ancient evidence) to small, thin, Roman silver coins produced in the 4th century A.D. and later.

When the coins were in circulation, the Latin word siliqua was a unit of weight defined as one twenty-fourth of the weight of a Roman solidus.

Gratian was just seven years old when his father, Valentinian I, made him co-emperor of the western Roman empire. Following the sudden death of his father, Gratian, now sixteen, found himself solely in charge. He was an early supporter of Christianity and did his best to stamp out old Pagan traditions wherever possible. This beautiful siliqua was minted in Augusta Treverorum (modern day Trier in Germany), which was operational from around AD 291. On the reverse, under the figure of Roma, we can see the mintmark TR for Trier. This is followed by PS, for pusulatum, and indicates that the metal is refined silver. Over time the coin has toned and developed a stunning rainbow-like iridescence. Ex. Naville Numismatics, Auction 32; Lot 584
