Ancient coins are a tangible connection to the past, truly holding history in one's hands.
Coinage was invented in the 7th century BCE as a means of simplifying trade, quickly growing into an influential art form. The best artists of the most powerful civilizations crafted miniature masterpieces, giving us a glimpse into their societies.
The Colosseo Collection has been in continual development for over 15 years with new coins added regularly, focusing on the first millennium of coinage.
In addition to art and historical significance, pedigree is of particular focus: the Collection includes coins from the famed collections of Kunstfreund, Pozzi, Biaggi, Jameson, Weber, Montagu, Magnaguti, Lockett, Apostolo Zeno, d'Este, Evans, Moretti, and many more.
