Coins of the Cairo Geniza

This is a digital paleographical glossary for dating textual fragments. This resource can assist researchers in dating geniza fragments that do not explicitly mention years of recording but instead retain numismatic data. In many instances, the production history of coinage can aid us in estimating the earliest year in which a text may have been recorded.
