Aes Signatum Cast Bronze As
The cast bronze coinage replaced the Aes Signatum ingots (1.6 kg) in 289 bc. The original standard As of 320 to 330 g began to decline in weight due to devaluations after 269 b.c., caused by the demands of the Pyrrhic and Punic wars; at the height of the Second Punic War, the As declined to about 40 g (the Sextantal standard). In 213 b.c. the cast coinage was abandoned for struck coinage based on a silver denarius.

Roman Coins: From Republic to Empire
Ancient Roman coins are a popular choice for beginning collectors, because their legends are easily read, and the Roman series has a logical structure similar to collecting modern coins by date and mintmark. Roman coins are classified into three series, each offering enough interest and variety for a lifetime of collecting. Before coins were developed, Roman money was cast bronze ingots. The first coins were issued under the Republic, beginning with cast Aes Grave issues of the third century bc.
The Roman Forum After the Punic Wars, these cumbersome cast coins were replaced by a new series of Roman coins based on the denarius, the principal Roman denomination for the next four hundred years. Struck bronze coins were issued during the next century, but bronze issues ceased in the 1st century bc. Collectors of Republican coins pursue various topical specialties, some selecting Aes Grave while others focus on the numerous varieties of late Republican denarius issues.
After a series of great wars, Rome's dominion extended first over Southern Italy, next the western Mediterranean, and ultimately the entire Mediterranean world. These conquests destabilized the Republic, which ended when Julius Caesar was assassinated in 44 bc. His nephew Augustus emerged as the first Roman Emperor, inaugurating two centuries of Pax Romana. After the Republic was succeeded by the Empire, the denominations of Roman coins expanded to include regular issues of gold aureii, while the sestertius became the principal bronze issue. During the third century the denarius was replaced by the antoninianus, and debasement of Roman coins issued during the second half of that century reflects the effects of barbarian invasions. Diocletian reformed the coinage and the new denominations of Roman coins, later modified by Constantine and his successors, endured until the end of the Empire. Collectors of Roman coins of the Imperial series tend to focus on getting a good portrait of each emperor, which can be a challenge since some (particularly usurpers) had brief reigns.
Many provincial cities and Roman colonies, particularly in the Balkans and in Asia Minor, struck civic and colonial issues under the Empire. These are also Roman coins, all issued under Imperial or Senatorial authority, although their types are different and legends are normally in Greek. The vast Roman Provincial or Greek Imperial series offers many collecting challenges since most of these issues are rare, although many are still very reasonably priced. The extensive coinage of Roman Egypt is a significant collecting field in itself.
 
In the third century barbarian invasions overwhelmed the Principate, which was replaced by the Tetrarchy. After Diocletian retired, Constantine reunited the Empire. Constantinople, his new capital, eclipsed Rome in 330. After Theodosius died the Empire was divided between his sons, and the West could not cope with its economic and military problems. Germans poured over the borders and the Western Empire collapsed in 476.
