Valens, 28 March 364 - 9 August 378 A.D.
In England, where many siliquae are found clipped, silver Roman coins apparently continued to circulate long after the Empire abandoned the island. Clipping may not have been primarily intended to deviously obtain a little silver. Clipping may have actually been performed primarily to make the weight and value equivalent to contemporary coins in the medieval period.RS84417. Silver siliqua, SRCV V 19675, cf.
