Many of these authorities continued to strike local coinage, often continuations of the original currencies that existed prior to the arrival of the Romans. New colonies were often also given authority to mint bronze coins for local use.
Provincial coins were issued in silver, billon and bronze denominations, though never gold. The majority were bronze, but silver and billon coins were more common in the Eastern regions of the Empire, particularly in Egypt.
