    Just to prove a point - University Of Wales,
    Lampeter has staff professors that teach numismatics. Oxford University, if you will check the link at the top of the page lists their professorial staff for numismatics (look in the top right hand corner of the page) - LINK And then you might try this page for further info - LINK 2

    Now that is what I managed to find in few minutes. There is plenty more.

    I think you've confused ancient numismatics and it's relationship to some archaeological disciplines. The Oxford links you provided are among the "requirements" for a degree in Roman Archaeology and the other simply a book on the coins of the Ashmolean Museum.

    Granted, they are very closely related and highly dependent on each other but I''ll ask this as my last words concerning the issue. Can John P. Blake from SpearFish, SD graduate highschool, join the Army, and after that decide to go to college in the USA with a Major declared in Numismatics? I've found no evidence of any such degree being offered.
