TURKISH SILVER COIN FIND ON DISPLAY

An article in the Turkish Daily News notes that "Silver coins
unearthed in the ancient city of Iasos, located in Mugla's Milas
district, are being featured in the semiannual Italian state
periodical Bollettino Di Numismatica (Bulletin of Numismatics).

The coins are currently on temporary display at the Izmir
Archaeology Museum.

"... the silver coins were unearthed by Franca Palazzini in 1969
in Iasos and that Italian archaeologists are conducting excavations
at the site under the auspices of the Culture and Tourism Ministry,
Berti said: "The findings should be put on permanent display instead
of being hidden away in the museum's storerooms. We are ready to do
our best to achieve this goal."
