We realised that our two latest catalogues heavily feature ancient Roman & Greek coins, and well if we are now doing a catalogue of ancient coins, we should include other ancient empires…
So in this new catalogue, we will be presenting you with coins from other ancient empires and kingdoms other than only Greek & Roman. We hope you enjoy browsing this catalogue and we wish you good luck in getting the coins you want
