Summary/Abstract: This article introduces the Coin Finds of Ukraine (CFU), an ongoing, collaborative project to digitize and catalogue classical Greek coin finds (500-1 BCE) on the territory of modern Ukraine, which brings together resources and expertise from several participating institutions. An inventory of published coin finds that aims at comprehensiveness is an important contribution to preserving Ukrainian cultural heritage. To date, CFU has completed two major project phases. This paper will acquaint readers with CFU‘s goals, methodology, and results so far, as well as provide some preliminary discussion of the results. It will also highlight the ways that CFU‘s data is incomplete and chart future project goals.
