Ancient Coinage of Macedonia, Heracleia Sintica

Modern-day Rupite, Bulgaria, in Thracian Macedonia, to the south of the River Struma. It was recently accidentally discovered at the foot of an extinct volcano by Rupite. A Latin inscription, dated 308 AD, of an imperial appeal addressed to the citizens of Heracleia Sintica discovered at the site ended the years-long argument between Greece and Bulgaria about where Heraclea Sintica actually was. Known since ancient times for its mineral spring.
