The catalogued objects will be selected from c. 7600 coins and c. 1500 artifacts from Begram and Kabul bazaar now in the British Museum, supplemented by illustrated coins recorded in Masson's archival manuscripts (F526/1a) and in H.H. Wilson (Ariana Antiqua London 1841), but no longer in the collection. A key resource will be the records and images of all the artifacts already available on the Museum&;s Collection online database:
