MMN Training
Join us at the University of Warwick for this year’s Money and Medals Network Training Day, held in collaboration with the Warwick Numismatics Day on
24 June 2025, as a joint event under the theme Coin Identification and Working with Roman Coins.
The day will begin with a hands-on Roman coin identification session, led by experts in the field. This practical session is designed for anyone working with coin collections, archaeological material, or involved in numismatic education.
In the afternoon, a series of talks will explore key themes in Roman numismatics, including digital tools and initiatives, provincial coinage, and recent coin finds. Full details can be found in the event itinerary.
There are two booking options available:
-
Coin Identification and Training Day– includes access to the full day’s programme, including the hands-on session.
-
Talks Only– includes access to the afternoon talks but does not include the coin identification session.
We look forward to welcoming you to a day of practical learning and stimulating discussion.
Programme - Please note: The programme is subject to change, as additional talks and updates may be added in the lead-up to the event.
