The love of history is what drew us to ancient coins and maps. Beautiful works of art that have the power to take us through time and remote places and brings us face to face with the glory of human achievement through centuries. Today's digital world is seeing both money forged from metal and maps made of paper rapidly disappearing from our daily use, adding to the fascination that many have for ancient coins and maps.
