dc.descriptionA study was undertaken to record and examine silver coins believed to be ancient Roman in origin. The aim was to evaluate the suitability of various advanced, non-invasive optical and spectrometric techniques for analysing the physical characteristics and elemental composition of numismatic objects. The questions addressed included the characterization and authentication of test coins, as well as technical issues in the multimodal recording of material CH with metadata and paradata. The team investigated whether the methods chosen for this case study responded to the needs of numismatists, and whether they could feasibly be applied in museum practice, to support research and conservation of historic coins, and to enhance the documentation and dissemination of numismatic objects through heritage science.
