Title: Database of http://www.sylloge-nummorum-graecorum.org/ offline???
Post by: Altamura on August 24, 2019, 03:28:43 am
Since some days the search in http://www.sylloge-nummorum-graecorum.org/ doesn't work any more.
A click on "Database" just shows an empty page  :(.

Has anyone an idea why?

Regards

My experience exactly.  I can see the home page and several others, but the Database page is empty.  Database must be offline.  Been trying for over a week now.  I even tried with a VPN on a UK server.  I tried different browsers (Chrome, IE, and Edge). No go.  I'm stumped.  Very disappointing, as I was counting on validating some numismatic references...

We have a dead link. Two actually, both found on the Numiswiki page for Museum Collections (https://www.forumancientcoins.com/numiswiki/view.asp?key=Museum%20Collections).
1) SNG.org: Two more weeks have gone by, and no happy ending for online database access to http://www.sylloge-nummorum-graecorum.org  
2) ANS:  The ANS database link is also broken.  This is a known issue, and the link was updated on the post named Identification Links, though it remains on the Museum Collections page.  The old link is http://numismatics.org/collection/accnum/list.  I am not familiar with their database, but they've been collaborating with others to make vast inter-entity online datasets, as described at numismatics.org/resources/ (http://numismatics.org/resources/) so they may have made changes on their end. The new location of their collection database is called MANTIS (http://numismatics.org/search).
