A community for collectors of ancient and medieval coins.
ID requests are welcome, but please post clearly lit images of both sides of the coin as well as a picture of the edges of the coin.
Sales posts are welcome. Inspired by the old ancientcoins subreddit, memes and jokes are only allowed on the last day of the month.
I general, just be nice to each other :)

Yes, they're not rare but they ARE kind of expensive. I'd go auction got one if I ever feel like spending that kind of money on a single coin outside my collection area...
No, I meant owl coins with owls in them other than the old Greek one.
The link I added has cheapies from Slovenia, Russia, France, Canada, no longer existing African territories, and more. No need to get the ancient one for big money.
Well... this IS the ancient coins community 😂
There are some cool ancient copies from Arabia which are sometimes more affordable.
Oops! This is what happens when I wander in from a cross post to see other replies! 😅
