Why not , mstewart.
Coins have been found same way as now .. plowing , heavy rain or ...., surely coins will be sold on and on until they will come to a rich
man , who will find them as a perfect gift to a
king , who definitely will be excited to see what other great kings looked like or how their monetary system was … Surely
Ancient Coins are pretty , they right got to the king' s heart and fell in love with them , as you fell and so did everyone here .
I sometimes think , some coins were minted in Mardin in 11 ce AD or so, using an old Greek dies of Demetrius found at some point of time , with adjustments .
