However, it can be increasingly hard to get your hands on the real deal. With authentic coins being increasingly difficult to come by, true collectors won’t want to miss out on this exciting news.
Joseph Gordon Antiques is adding ancient Roman silver coins to its stock. The manufacturing of coins in Roman culture began in 4th Century BC, so when you add a Roman coin to you private collection, you are truly adding a piece of ancient history. In fact, the very origin of the word “mint” came about when describing the manufacture of silver coins in 269BC Rome near the temple of Juno Moneta – the goddess who became the personification of money.
