    Dane Kurth's spreadsheets for various Roman coins

     

    Tesorillo-- fantastic site for identifying late Roman bronzes

    Collectors' websites of note

     

    Colosseo Collection-- View at your own risk.  Your coins may seem unsatisfactory after ogling this astonishing collection!

     

    Doug Smith's Ancient Coins-- If you've spent any time on CoinTalk or FAC's boards,  you know Doug.  He's a great source of coin knowledge, presented with wonderfully dry wit. 

     

    Warren Esty's site-- difficult to navigate but it contains quite a bit of good information

     

    Man-Faced Bulls-- Nicolas Molinari and Nicola Sisci are utterly obsessed!   Their website is comprehensive and continually updated.  The link is to the main page (bronze coins); the landing page has links to their separate sites for gold and silver MFB coins.

     

     

    Coin Forums

     

    CoinTalk-- My favorite hangout!  What a great group of people and a very nice platform.  A fun place!

     

    Forum Ancient Coins discussion boards-- one of the oldest ancient coin boards, full of in-depth information, frequented by several well-known numismatists.  Downside:  slow-loading; chock full of rules which can be intimidating for new users
