“…Another set of silver coins, this time ''Friesacher Pfennig'' and ''Tiroler Kreuzer'' were analyzed by Linke et al [98]. Using XRF, the authors were able to determine the trace elements of the coins and as a result were able to assign the various coins to their mint.…”

This paper gives an overview of research in or associated with the pan-European network COST Action G8, which aims at achieving a better preservation and conservation of our cultural heritage by increasing the knowledge of art and archaeological objects through advanced chemical and physical analyses. The paper is focussed on the use of various analytical techniques for the examination of cultural heritage materials and includes research examples on painted works of art, ceramics, glasses, glazes and metals. In addition attention is drawn to advances in analytical instrumentation, for example the development of portable techniques to perform analyses on site, and to the need for collaboration between people directly involved in the field of cultural heritage and analytical scientists.

“…[1] A number of papers have been published in recent years, devoted to the nondestructive analysis of Greek silver coins, [2] Roman bronze [3][4][5] and silver coins, [6][7][8][9][10] silver and golden medieval coins, [11][12][13] and other coinages. [14][15][16] The aim of the analysis is, in general, the determination of the composition of the coins, with the purpose of understanding the practices of coinage and the materials used.…”

X‐ray fluorescence analysis on a group of coins from the ancient roman city of Tridentum (Trento, Italy)

A group of 83 coins, found in the archeological excavations of the ancient Roman city of Tridentum (Trento, Italy), was studied for the determination of their composition, finalized to their classification and cataloging.The coins, mainly made of copper-based alloys, were minted between the republican period (II century BC) and the last decades of the western empire (V century AD).The X-Ray Fluorescence archaeometric analysis has allowed a revision of the typological classification of the coins through the identification of six broad groups, each one characterized by a peculiar composition of the coins in the group. A tentative assignation of all the unreadable coins to one of the groups identified was proposed, in a way that could suggest also a possible dating of these coins.

“…In another paper two types of medieval coins were examined with XRF, proton-induced X-ray emission analysis (PIXE) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM/EDX) [3]. Data were evaluated with principal component analysis and the aim was to classify the coins by their places of origin [3].…”

“…Data were evaluated with principal component analysis and the aim was to classify the coins by their places of origin [3]. It was concluded, that PIXE was less appropriate for the measurement of corroded coins due to its lower depth of penetration.…”
