Numismatics

The numismatic database allows for specialised searches for coin and coin details that the Western Australian Museum has found during Maritime Archaeology expeditions.

Use the basic search function to find a general type of coin, or use the advanced search to find a specific coin artefact. Alternatively, you can browse numismatic images of all digitized shipwreck numistmatic artefacts found in this database.
