Date of Salvidenus is NOT proven by coin in Madden's Coins of the Jews
[edit]The date of Salvidenus is NOT proven by the coin in p. 218 of Coins of the Jews by Frederic William Madden. The reason being that Madden misclassified the coin to Judaea when it belongs to Bithynia-Pontus. Moreover, Madden supposed that the complete inscription may have referred to Marcus Salvidenus Proclus when the actual inscription is Marcus Salvidenus Asprenas. See Roman Provincial Coinage volume II number 612. Lastly, Roman coins with the inscription of Marcus Salvidenus Proclus (or Proculus) also belong to Bithynia-Pontus. See RPC II, 652 and RPC II, 610A. --Americanplus (talk) 17:46, 2 November 2020 (UTC)
