At the end of our Collectors Gallery the collections Spotlight Gallery currently hosts a display of Greek coins from The Higgins collections. Please click here to view a PDF that provides an overview of the display and details about the coins in the collection.
We have a collection of ancient coins which have only recently been recorded, catalogued and investigated. The purpose of this display is to use a sample of the better preserved and more illuminating coins in the collection to investigate what light they throw on the values and preoccupations of the world that produced them.
In this gallery you will also find our Ukrainian Heritage, Costume and Textiles display.
