Numismatic Hall

The Hall of coins at the Jordanian Heritage Museum was established in 2002 . It was opened by His Majesty King Abdullah II.

 

A national team from the Jordan Heritage Museum and the Institute of Archaeology and anthropology at Yarmouk University contributed to the design and implementation of this work. The hall includes eleven cabinets containing coins from different eras in successive chronologies from the pre-Numismatic era to the Islamic periods, in addition to many shells, beads and ornaments from bracelets, collars and lambs decorated with coins.

 

The safes include a different number of coins (minted) in different sizes and metals as they reflect the diversity that exists at each stage in these safes from an economic, social, political, religious and other point of view. The hall contains more than one corner to represent the methods of minting coins from the figures and tools of minting coins that represent the process of minting coins in successive stages of time.
