Abstract

A number of medieval coins from the Brukenthal Museum, Sibiu, Romania have been analyzed by the means of three methods: gamma transmission, X-ray fluoresecence and neutron activation analysis. The values of the concentrations of the elements determined given by the three methods are discussed.

Keywords

medieval coins gamma transmission x-ray fluorescence neutron activation analysis element concentrations
