1382 What if History’s Greatest Secrets Fit in the Palm of Your Hand
Richard Syrett's Strange PlanetShow Notes
What if the greatest secrets of the ancient world weren't carved into monuments, but stamped onto coins? Numismatic expert Dean Kinzer reveals how tiny pieces of metal preserve hidden symbols, imperial propaganda, biblical mysteries, and clues to lost civilizations that may still shape our money, governments, and culture today.
GUEST: Dean Kinzer is one of North America's foremost experts on ancient coins and the founder of Kinzer Coins. A decorated Iraq War veteran with an MBA, he has devoted years to studying the coinage of ancient Greece, Rome, Judea, Egypt, and the biblical world. His work reveals how these miniature works of art preserve political propaganda, religious symbolism, and forgotten chapters of history, from the assassination of Julius Caesar to the time of Jesus, making ancient coins some of history's most reliable eyewitnesses.
