🪙 Roman coin from Alexandria. It was struck under the reign of Roman emperor Domitian between 86–87 CE and one side shows Domitian’s portrait. The reverse shows Nilus, the personification of the Nile, holding a cornucopia and a reed.

While looking for images of ancient Greek philosophers, I came up with this intriguing portrait of Eukleides of Megara. The coin is dated to Hadrian's reign ..... #Numismatics rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/coins/3/408

Interested to see the latest application of natural language processing in Python to numismatic descriptions to greatly enhance searchability (with Wikidata integration)? I'll be giving a zoom presentation to ANS members on Friday.

Sie steht auf einer Welle und war lange übersehen: Eine spätantike Münze mit der Göttin Isis Pelagia aus dem Münzkabinett der Staatlichen Museen zu Berlin wurde konserviert und neu erforscht. Jetzt surft sie auch durchs Netz – als Teil der digitalen Sammlung. #SPKmagazin #Münzkabinett #Numismatik

Die surfende Göttin, wachgeküsst
Die Münzkunde profitiert von der Digitalisierung ganz besonders. Das zeigt „Imagines Nummorum Graecum“, das große neue Akademievorhaben.

Quite unusual type of a coiled serpent riding on the back of a horse, depicted on coins of Philadelphia in Lydia. Certainly not associated with games, but rather with the cult of Asclepius. #AsiaMinor #numismatics #archaeology #AncientBluesky rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/type/20291 (Philip, AD 244–49)
