Wow!
Hmmm, I thought I would be viewing a wonderful grouping of ancients! Where's the Greek stuff!
These coins were in the Greek Numismatic Museum! One set of coins and I don’t recall which set, was donated with the understanding that anyone wanting access to the coins for research should have access to them!
Check out the relief on this one!
Otto never looked more determined. Thanks for sharing. Peace Roy

It’s a wonderful little oasis in the middle of Athens, even for non collectors. It’s also worth visiting it with a set of headphones, as a personal guide, available in many languages. Nice post.

You know what is crazy? I spent 4 days there in 2018 about 4 blocks from the Museum and never made a visit. I knew about it, and intended to go, but there was so much going on, I never made it there. And that is the reason I'm planning to go back in late 2022!

We were there several years ago and didn’t even know it was there, it was just around the corner from where we were staying…we were just across the street from the tomb of unknown soldier.
