What Do Coins Want and What Can They Do?

We cordially invite you to the ceremonial launch of our academy project Imagines Nummorum.

We are delighted to welcome opening remarks from the President of the Academy, Christoph Markschies, and the General Director of the Berlin State Library – Prussian Cultural Heritage, Achim Bonte.
Following this, we will highlight the potential of ancient coins for visual and cultural-historical research and present the key objectives of the project: the publication of the Greek coins in the Berlin Coin Cabinet, the development of an iconopgraphic thesaurus, fundamental image-based analyses, and the creation and application of digital infrastructure and AI tools.
Join us in celebrating the start of this exciting new endeavor!
