JOURNAL OF ISLAMIC NUMISMATIC CENTER - EGYPT

I am very pleased to share with your readers news of a new numismatic journal devoted to the study of Islamic numismatic material. It is entitled "Journal of Islamic Numismatic Center - Egypt" or JINCE. It is being published by the College of Archaeology, Fayoum University, Egypt under the direction of the College's Dean and very active Islamic numismatist, Dr. Atef Mansour Ramadan.

The table of contents in Arabic can be found at http://www.fayoum.edu.eg/arc/FirstM. Every article begins with a summary in Arabic and English of its contents. This is followed by the article itself allowing you to immediately download a pdf copy of the article if you wish. In the first issue, Vol 1 2018, there are 12 articles in Arabic and 4 in English.

Dr Atef encourages all of you to look at the journal and to consider submitting an appropriate article to it. A list of the editorial board can be found at http://www.fayoum.edu.eg/arc/FirstM/Committee.aspx. The link to the title page in English is under construction.

International Journal of Iranian Studies
In addition I just received a notice from Abbas Ahmadvand, an Iranian scholar, on a proposed journal in Persian Studies which, I believe in light of Abbas's own interests, would welcome submissions on coinage associated with the Persianate world.

He wrote the following: "We are planning to establish a journal, the International Journal of Iranian Studies, under my editorship in the Foundation of Iranology, Tehran,Iran. We will send to you aims, scope, guidelines and call for papers soon, but, please let me tell you friendly, if you have a ready or unpublsihed English article on the Iranian history, Persian language and literature and the Iranian society, I will be so glad to publish it in our first issue."
