For quite a few years (going back to about 2016), the concept pages for many types of IDs in Nomisma.org have shown a table of example types related to the given concept, with photographs of related specimens related to the type, if available. This table was limited to 10 results, but the entire type listing could be downloaded as a CSV file.
After a minor overhaul, I have implemented pagination of these types as well as sorting for the columns of authority, mint, denomination, and date (by earliest date of issue). This enhances the overall usability of the feature.

In addition, I updated the underlying SPARQL queries for deities defined in Nomisma to display both maps depicting the geographic distribution (mints, hoards, and individual findspots) and related types. The metrical and distribution analysis charts are now available for deity concepts, so it is possible to generate a chart showing the distribution of Hellenistic kings that issued coinage of Zeus, for example.
