Abstract
Precise distance and angular measurments were made on ancient coins using negatives projected onto an electromagnetic-sensitive screen. Two calibrations and ten other points for each coin were entered from the projection (about X10) into a computer. Computer comparisons of distances and angles on different coins of the same issue have enabled die-links to be rapidly determined.
