Coin Art for the Walls (Ancient Coins)

It is possible to find coins in art.  Ancient coins are especially nice, and may be the only way to view a large scale print of the details.  We have found a few that may be of interest, and are showing them here.  Look at the coins and remember they predated modern minting techniques and equipment.
