Not sure if it’s the right place to post it. I will copy the text of user Alexermq on Reddit:

A first ever numismatic exhibition in the monumental hall of Biblioteca Casanatense in Rome!

On November 19th, the historic Biblioteca Casanatense will host the opening ceremony of a new numismatic exhibition at 18:00 (it is free to enter). The exhibition will run for an entire month, so if you’re not currently in Rome, you'll have plenty of time to visit it later—completely free of charge. This unique showcase includes a collection of ancient Roman coins and ten papal medals, all of which have never been displayed by the Biblioteca before.

If you happen to be in Rome and are interested in a captivating dive into history of connection between coins and the sacred, don't miss this opportunity to explore a rare collection!

Address: Via di Sant'Ignazio, 52 - Rome

I’m currently in Rome so I’ll try to be there (not sure I’ll make it though). Anyone else coming? 🙂
