Nummus Facts

Nummus Facts are a series of factsheets published by Romanorum to assist beginning collectors navigate the unknown waters of Ancient Coin Collecting. Each sheet is a PDF designed to fit on one A4 double sided piece of paper and to contain information pertaining to one subject, and arranged in a heirarchy.

For example, if you were interested in collecting Roman Republican coins, then you would need the first fact sheet (Ancient Coins) then Factsheet 2 (Roman Coins) and finally Factsheet 2.1 (Roman Republican Coins).

Nummus Factsheets are a work in progress. Factsheets currently available are links to the PDF file. Factsheets still to be written or only in draft form are displayed only to give the sense of a "map" of ancient coin information.
