<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Gavin Richardson, post: 2679352, member: 83956&quot;]So I was going through some photos from Jan 2016 and ran across some pix I took in the National Archaeological Museum of Venice, right on the Piazza San Marco. I don&#039;t think this museum gets much traffic since most tourists are there to see the Basilica, the Doge&#039;s Palace, etc., though entrance to the museum is often included in the price of tickets to other sights.</p><p><br /></p><p>The museum has a nice display of ancient coins and medals. Their display of contorniates especially caught my eye; I don&#039;t think I&#039;ve ever seen a bunch of contorniates gathered in one place. It was interesting to see coin styles I recognized (such as the Constantinopolis commemorative LRB) rendered in large medal form.</p><p><br /></p><p>There&#039;s no real point to this thread other than &quot;here&#039;s some eye candy.&quot; Enjoy.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]598611[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]598612[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]598613[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]598614[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]598615[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
