Site Map

Welcome to the site! It is continuously growing and being updated so please visit often. I have attempted to make this a user-friendly, informative site with numerous resources (including tables, and downloadble posters and maps) and links provided throughout. I began collecting ancient coins in 1998. You will find that I have several areas of collecting interest. My two primary collecting areas are coins of Trajan (well over 200 coins) with an emphasis on provincial issues and Greek silver. However, I also have smaller collections of coins from the Roman Republic during the decade of Sulla (90 - 80 BCE), figural bronzes of the Islamic Zengid and Artuqid dynasties, and coins with astronomical symbols (All of which reside in a safety deposit box at a local bank.).
If you find errors or have comments, please contact me. My email address is provided under the Links tab above. Enjoy and learn - T. B.

With warm thanks to our Web Host, Bill Puetz of Vcoins.com and Ancients.info - Two sites that have revolutionized collecting.
