Here's something interesting I picked up yesterday: a set of 165 antique silver coin cabinet tickets with the names of
Roman Republican moneyers. From the format of the moneyer's names which follow
Cohen and earlier works, rather than
Babelon and later, I'm guessing these are 18th century or early 19th century. Small pic in
thread, larger pic below so you can read the tickets!
There's one moneyer missing so far as I can see (
Volteia) but all the others differ including one marked "INCERTA". Whilst they look lovely on the scrabble board, I may want to use it again so my plan is to do something rather ordinary with them in the long term - use these as, or as
part of, my actual coin tickets in the trays, where over 100 special coins (focusing on those with great pedigrees) will get a little silver ticket alongside them in their cabinet slot.
