Hi, I'm Ray Wilk and I'm hooked on collecting Roman Provincial coins with city gate reverses, and unusual ancient architectural coins. Notice the similar characteristics between the gates on some of the coins and the photos of the present day ruins.

Over the years I owned and photographed the coins on these pages. However, with 3 kids in college now, I have a selection of my architectural coins for sale. Many of them are now with new owners.

I'm a Graphic Designer, and I designed and had manufactured a variety of everyday items with high-quality imprints of popular ancient coins. Please click on the link below for my VCoins Gear store. You may find some of the items there interesting and useful.

Thanks for visiting!
