<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Orielensis, post: 4961927, member: 96898&quot;]A wonderful coin, [USER=90248]@Spaniard[/USER]! It is quite difiicult to find a coin from Empuries in such attractive condition. I myself have been looking for one for quite a while for reasons similar to yours: my wife grew up in Palamós (some 20 miles south of Empúries), we still have a place there and visit quite often. I love the ruins and museum, and I go there about everytime I&#039;m in the area.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t have a coin to show (yet), but here are some pictures from my last trip to Empúries:</p><p><br /></p><p>The Greek city with the museum entrance in the background:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1192858[/ATTACH]&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The Roman city with the mosaic floors and the forum and baths in the far background:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1192859[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>The beautiful coastline nearby – a terrific place for hiking and kayaking:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1192857[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>These are the ruins of the nearby Iberian oppidum Ullastret. If you are in the region next time, you might want to visit. They are quite impressive and also have a good museum:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1192856[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
