Abstract

The South Italian silver incuse stater Australian Centre for Ancient Numismatic Studies inv. 07GS729 with the matching obverse/reverse type of the bull with head reverted and the inscriptions 'Sirinos/Pyxoes' was minted sometime between c.540 and 510 BC. We know very little about the mint in which it was struck. Here we present results from SEM studies and from the current joint project of the Australian Centre for Ancient Numismatic Studies (ACANS) and the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organization (ANSTO) which explore the techniques for making incuse coinage.
