I have a few hand hammered coins confirmed to be at least 3000 years old. No one can verify the script used. Also have several ancient coins unknown origin. Also a confirmed carved ivory cribbage board with carved pegs. Unable to post pics here but can send them in a msg. Clostest script ive found is persian. Any info from someone with knowledge of this time frame would be appreciated. Also foreign coins from the 20s on too numetous to mention

I was just curious if you could decipher any of the depiction, lettering etc on the coins. Do you know if they are Roman, Greek, or Egyptian, or something else?

I don't collect coins but do have a pendant made from an ancient coin. The pendant consists of a Greek Silver Hemidrachm with a gold bezel. The coin was minted on the Isle of Rhodes, Circa 150 BC.
