Appreciating Ancient Coins

Some ancient coins of high quality are available in art form.  No, you cannot turn the print over and see the other side, but you can appreciate the image that is there.  And you can display the image without fear of having a valuable coin stolen. 

Prints can be placed on walls in your home, or in a business.  Match a group of images and find you have a wonderful decorating scheme.

Images can also be found on other objects, such as coffee mugs.  Imagine having a mug on your desk with an ancient coin image.

Mugs can be used for coffee or tea, but also for many other decorative reasons.  Mugs can hold candy, pens and pencils, or other desktop items. 

Ancient coin collectors often specialize.  Some prefer one of the three periods of Roman history.  Others collect ancient coins from Greece.  Some collect coins from the Holy Land. 

Collections can also include later, albeit ancient, coins.  Medieval coins from Europe are interesting.  Perhaps a collector will concentrate on a country from which the coin was minted.  William the Conqueror established the mint in England in the eleventh century, but there was already a slightly older mint in Paris.  So old British and French coins are among those one could appreciate.

China and Japan also have had coins for many centuries.  The nice part of collecting affordable art is that one can easily collect coins from one, or several, interests. 

Coins are not unique in matched art.  Art themes for businesses abound.
