American Numismatic Society Founded in 1858 for the appreciation of numismatics
The ANS collection of Byzantine coins is strong in virtually all areas except the coins of the Palaeologi, and is comparable in size to the better-known collections at Dumbarton Oaks (Washington) and in Paris. Its scope extends from the coinage reform of Anastasius in 498 until the Ottoman conquest of Trebizond and the Morea in 1461. It includes around 14,000 coins and seals.
