<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 2391971, member: 19463"]Perhaps someone would like to take on the task of figuring out a 'want' list of coins that could be dropped in to maps with minimal overlapping. It might be best to do more than one map of one region based on time period showing an overview of hotbeds of coinage early, middle, late, Roman and medieval (for example). Having the list, we might have threads asking who has a specific coin that is needed to fill a gap. Certainly some of these cities were big coin users and others mostly used other cities' coins or functioned without a coin economy. The maps might be interesting to point out those places.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have shown my Aspendos many times here. It is like Mikey's but has a countermark which the first two posts in this thread will allow you to read as long as you realize that Aramaic reads right to left. I usually give the translation but Collect89 has empowered all who care to read to do it themselves. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]491519[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]491520[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
