Countermarked Coin is a coin marked after being minted and while it is in circulation
Britain was an attractive target for Rome because of its material wealth — particularly mines and slaves

There is also a reference to Claudius' suppression of one of the coups against him in the movie Gladiator , though the incident is entirely fictional
