The chronological structure of silver and bronze coins, including those found individually, in hoards and in small foundation deposits, clearly indicates the existence of only a few stages of increased coin inflow in the almost two-hundred-year history of the presence of Roman army units in Apsaros. All of them coincide with important military events in the East and seem to be a testimony to the periodic concentration of Roman troops in the fort. Between the waves of monetary inflow, one can easily observe periods in which coins only reached Apsaros to a limited extent. The aim of the paper is an attempt to interpret the main waves of coins entering the fort in Apsaros in a historical context.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Key words: <\/strong>Colchis, Apsaros, Trapezus, Caesarea in Cappadocia<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>DOI: <\/strong>https:\/\/doi.org\/10.52800\/ajst.1.16.a6<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jaworski, P. 2021. \u201cReading the History of the Roman Fort in Apsaros (Autonomous Republic of Adjara, Georgia) from a Numismatic Perspective\u201d, <em>Notae Numismaticae \u2013 Zapiski Numizmatyczne<\/em> 16: 125\u2013142.
