Members, please contribute additions to the Greek Numismatic Dictionary in NumisWiki.

I have added a lot of new Greek legends, but after uploading I can see only question marks. I think there is going something wrong with the Greek letters!

Not yet! I see only some Sigmas between the question marks.

I just cleaned up the HTML code.  If you still don't see Greek, you do not have the symbol font installed (which would be unusual).

Thank you, Joe. And you are right, the Greek font is not installed.

Symbol font is part of windows and I think on almost all computers.

I have added a number of legends from my provincial coins. I have used a new Greek font and it works. Sadly the entries are not in alphabetical order.
