@llewelyn_morgan Ooh, & your Tenby coin! http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/365162 …. Caerwent coins of Ptolemy I http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/342939 … & http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/342940 …
@caitlinrgreen Quite a few Gk/post-Gk coins from Afgh/Pak, in fact: makes the Tenby drachma less anomalous (if anc losses). What a database!
@llewelyn_morgan Yes, that's very true--the Tenby coin clearly doesn't stand alone. And absolutely, it's an amazing resource! :)
@llewelyn_morgan Btw, can you see this w/ your login? Coin of Indo-Greek king Hermaeus, E1stC BC, found Hampshire :)pic.twitter.com/nuFGvjeLKB
@caitlinrgreen No, but thank you! V nice. This from Cornwall is an issue imitating Hermaeus that's very common in Afgpic.twitter.com/o0WnWpGkxG
@caitlinrgreen Here, eg, are images of Gk coins that a Brit officer found at Bamiyan c 1840: top one's v similar.pic.twitter.com/GKgv46tRDb
@caitlinrgreen An ex on database of the lovely elephant issue beneath, too, but they don't think it's an ancient losspic.twitter.com/QqKjaXRtbD
@llewelyn_morgan It's an interesting question--they may be assuming not ancient loss purely on basis of rarity of coins?
@caitlinrgreen Yes, likely so. That one's a popular collector's item--such a striking image--so maybe that's influencing their thinking too
