Coins of the Ancient World
Coins originated in the seventh century B.C.E. and have been vital storytellers of past monetary systems and cultural history since that time. The two sides of every coin hold a wealth of information about humanity's past including civilization's political, religious, and iconographic progress. This permanent installation showcases coins from the collection and highlights the Ancient Greek, Ancient Roman, and Byzantine cultures. |
