This site indexes coins of France from the Carolingians to the 19th c., English coins from Anglo-Saxon to present, coins of Venice and Germany, and coins of the crusades. It combines pictures of the coins with history. The Carolingian section is particularly well developed.

The site is in French but has many illuminations and sound files.

"With a database of images, texts, charts and historical maps, Mapping Gothic France invites you to explore the parallel stories of Gothic architecture and the formation of France in the 12th and 13th centuries, considered in three dimensions:Space, Time, Narrative. The Mapping Gothic France project was initiated by Stephen Murray, Professor of Art History and Archaeology at Columbia University and Andrew Tallon, Assistant Professor of Art at Vassar College and funded through the generosity of the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Mapping Gothic France was developed within the framework of collaboration between the Media Center for Art History in the Department of Art History and Archaeology at Columbia University, the Visual Resources Library at Vassar College, and the Columbia University Libraries."
