  Argenteus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The argenteus was a silver coin produced by the Roman Empire from the time of Diocletian's coinage reform in 294 AD to ca.
The coin was produced at a theoretical weight of 1/96th of a Roman pound (about 3 grams), as indicated by the Roman numeral XCVI on the coin's reverse.
Argenteus, meaning "of silver" in Latin, was first used in Pliny's Natural History in the phrase "argenteus nummus" (silver coin).

 A linguistically annotated edition of the Gothic Bible
A lemmatized and POS-tagged edition of a 6th century copy of a 4th century text will inevitably require a certain amount of abstraction and reconstruction.
In that case, it probably makes sense to start from Streitberg's semi-critical edition rather than a strictly diplomatic edition like Uppström's work or the text files of the Codex Argenteus prepared by David Landau.
The ideal, of course, would be to present them side by side, providing both philological accuracy and linguistic abstraction without forcing both levels into one single encoding.
