Hellenistic Coins from Nimrud

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  07 August 2014

Extract

In presenting the following account of the coins found at Nimrud in the excavations of 1957, I should like to thank Prof. M. E. L. Mallowan for his kindness in inviting me to study and record the material. Some of the coins, notably those from the small hoard of tetradrachms (nos. 6190–2 and 6195–7 below) found in the Hellenistic levels of Trench O, south of the Nabu temple, have been illustrated in I.L.N. Nov. 23rd, 1957. Here I illustrate all the coins that seem to deserve it; few of the bronze pieces come into that category, as is apt to be the case with excavation coins.
