Among the tasks of the ''rationalis'' were the collection of all normal taxes and duties, the control of currency, and the administration of mines and mints. After the reforms of [[Diocletian]], the ''rationalis'' and the [[Rationibus]] were replaced by the ''comes sacrarum largitionum''. == See also == * [[Aerarium]] * [[Comes]] * [[Congiarium]] * [[fiscus]] * [[rationibus]] * [[Roman finance]] {{unreferenced|date=October 2006}} {{Ancient-Rome-stub}} [[Category:Ancient Roman titles]] [[Category:Economy of ancient Rome]] [[Category:Economic history of Italy]]
