The theme for this session is 'An introduction to the Coin Collection at the University of Leeds' by Dr Lucy Moore (University of Leeds).

This talk will introduce you to the hidden gem, that is the University of Leed's coin collection. Established by the Department of Latin shortly after the First World War for use in teaching, the collection expanded hugely in the mid-twentieth century through both acquisition and bequest. In this talk, curator Lucy Moore will introduce some of the history of the collection, a selection of the fascinating coins it holds and some of the ways we are using the collection today.

Join us as we embark on this exciting journey into the world of coins and medals!
