ANCIENT GREEK BRONZE COINS
    I suppose I should exclude from "Greek" the peripheral coins of the non-Greeks: Phoenicians, Iberians, Numidians, etc.  But no one else does, so I guess I'll go with the flow for now.  What Sear describes as "the East": Syria, Phoenicia, etc., will go on a separate page.
