Neither of these coins have text, at least not text that an English-speaker would recognize as such (they both have a few non-English letters on them, but you pretty much already need to know what the coins are before you can read it). Apps like Coinoscope might help, they're great for modern coins but for ancient and mediaeval coins like these, there's simply too much variablity in design and shape for the AI behind them to be reliable. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
CityofKooks Valued Member Canada 278 Posts	Posted 05/09/2022 12:59 pm Sap its funny you mention this because just yesterday I downloaded the app. Completely agree about the language and variables, I have so many ancient coins that I bought with another Canadian collection and I have no idea what to do with it. Personally never had an interest in ancient coins, although they're super interesting. The search continues...thanks so much for the info Report this Post to the Staff
