Greek Coins of Gela (490-1 BC)

As written previously, I will write about sites which I find are of value to numismatists.  One site I really find useful is http://www.magnagraecia.nl.  It is a great site, but a little difficult to navigate through the various levels in order to find the catalogue and quite frankly, the frames make it a bit “messy”.

One of the pages which I have bookmarked is Gela Coins (490-1C BC).  This is a fairly extensive catalogue of coins of Gela.

Some other pages I have found interesting:

Lucania:
Coins of Metapontion
Coins of Herakleia
Coins of Poseidonia
Coins of Velia
Coins of Laos

If you navigate the site you will find a map and you can click on the various cities, goto the coin page and find listings of coins of each city.  Some are pretty extensive, some only have one or a few examples listed.  But this is a pretty impressive site nonetheless!

    I think you misspelled the URL. It’s http://www.magnagraecia.nl/coins/ .
