Ancient Coins for Education, Inc. (ACE) was established in 2001 as a registered non-profit organization to encourage learning about Classical (Greek, Roman, and Byzantine) history through the use of ancient numismatics. ACE provides coins to students for their study and attribution with the help of online and computer resources.
ACE is run by volunteers and works primarily with middle and high schools (both public and private), with some elementary schools and universities also participating in specially directed versions of the program. Though the coins that ACE furnishes to these educational establishments are typically of lower monetary value, they provide a basis for unique, hands-on study of the ancient world. ACE lends assistance to creative school activities, such as Ancient Coin Museums and Archaeological Simulation projects, which encourage students' interest in ancient history.

One of America's premier numismatists and dealers Harlan J. Berk
recently offered Ancient Coins for Education ten copies of his newest
book "The One Hundred Greatest Ancient Coins" for distribution to
teachers associated with the ACE program. The book is a gorgeous
compilation, each of these wonderful coins getting at least a full page
of this oversized volume to display a large image of the coin selected,
its history and often a history of the numismatic research behind the
coin.
New Image Contest to follow and a Teachers' Special !!
Great Winners. Coin prizes are being mailed.
Our ACE coins now available for students to ID! The Essay contest will shortly be announced, and Souzana is working on a new Image Contest to keep our students researching and learning!
