Seller's Story

Lucernae is a numismatic company founded in 2002 by Antonio Hinojosa Pareja, a graduate in Geography and History since 1997. Lucernae, as is well known, is the plural of a Latin word that defines a point of light (lucerna), a typical and everyday object in any home in the classical world. In the same way, our objective is the diffusion of historical knowledge through Numismatics. Being a point of light on Antiquity just like this small ceramic container filled with oil illuminated life hundreds or thousands of years ago! Welcome to the Story through the coins!
