Coins

There are dozens of sites out there that will sell you coins with Alexander's image on them (most of which are really Lysimachus' or someone else's.) I do not link to them, however, as I think the coin market harms archaeological sites. Why? For one thing because locals scour sites with metal detectors and dig pits wherever they hear beeps. I have, I should add, nothing against owning documented antiquities or even against archaeological digs selling excavated and documented artifacts. However, until some method is discovered of closing off the market to new coins (which number in the millions) coin trading promotes the destruction of ancient sites.
