It represents the first detailed survey conducted for an area of particular interest, that of a large city in northern Italy, worthy of competing with Mediolanum and Aquileia. Furthermore, it is a work that concludes the series dedicated to the province of Verona, waiting for a final volume, relating to the closet in Albaredo d'Adige, to complete the picture of this western area of the region. It also marks a further stage in the scientific journey carried out by the other volumes dedicated to the coins found in the various provinces of Veneto, which is nearing its conclusion.
