HIST 94.16 Before Billboards and Twitter: Roman Coins Text

This hands-on course focuses on the ancient Roman production, the development and use of money at Rome, the logistics of coin production, and the methods for studying coinage to write ancient history. Students learn basic numismatic methodology by handling and studying coins from the collection in Dartmouth’s Hood Museum of Art and prepare material for a coin installation. A final unit treats the ethics of coin collecting and the role of the modern museum.
