Numismatica Pro is based on the work of several font designers who have permitted incorporation of their work. The baseline Latin, Greek and Cyrillic character sets are from the BPreplay font by George Triantafyllakos. Several monogram glyphs were borrowed from the series of Seleucid monogram fonts designed by Catharine Lorber and from fonts designed by Brad Nelson of Classical Numismatic Group, Inc. Additional monograms were contributed by Dr. Farhad Assar of Oxford, England. I drew the majority of monograms by hand based on photos of actual Parthian coins. The many variations of archaic and ancient Greek letterforms are from the earlier Numismatica symbol font and remain consistent with their use in Dave Perry’s Cardo font. Numismatica Pro was created in support of this web site and the Sylloge Nummorum Parthicorum project.
