Coins of Roman Egypt<\/a>
\n“One of the things that I enjoy most about the hobby of ancient coin collecting is the willingness of others to share their knowledge along with insight they have received from the coins in their collection. This website is my attempt to aid and encourage the discussion of Alexandrian coinage under the Romans, and to hopefully give something back. If I can be of help to you, or you have found an error on my site, please do not hesitate to email me.”<\/p>\n
