As someone previously uninterested in coins, I did not expect to spend 18 minutes this afternoon watching a video on ancient coins—and thoroughly enjoy it. Well done!

The resurgence of this channel has been stellar. Not just to appease the history nerd in my brain, but for education to all. Keep up the great work!

It always makes me so sad how much of the culture and beliefs of iron age people have been lost, we can only look at the human-headed horse and wonder

Hi, Neil Mahrer from Jersey (Catillon II) here. Congratulations, that’s the most lucid explanation of the coin designs I’ve ever seen. I shall be rotating some our displayed coins tomorrow!
