Our Mission

Milwaukee Science was founded in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on the love of science and history. We aim to bring extraordinary products to people who never thought that they could own them. Everyone deserves to see and feel (and taste, if you'd like) pieces of history free from the confines of a museum. Milwaukee Science sells authentic meteorites, fossils, and ancient coins & rings. We offer shipping internationally!

Many of the exquisite items we carry are one of a kind, so we ask that you take care of anything you buy and preserve them for generations to come.

Featured Product: Reedops Trilobite

These authentic trilobites are beautifully preserved specimen, partially encased in hard limestone. They were found near Atchana, Morocco.

 

Trilobites were a very diverse group of extinct marine arthropods. They first appeared in the fossil record in the Early Cambrian (521 million years ago) and went extinct during the Permian mass extinction (250 million years ago). They were one of the most successful of the early animals on our planet with over 25k described species, filling nearly every evolutionary niche. Due in large part to a hard exoskeleton, they left an excellent fossil record.

Featured Product: Ancient Celtic Rings

Ancient Celtic Danube river tribes, c. 5th-1st century BC. Bronze ring money, they were traded as currency before the celt's introduction to hammered silver and gold coinage. Found at an ancient site near the Danube river, eastern europe.

 

The ancient Celts lived in tribal groups, ruled by chieftains who ruled over different geographical regions.  They were revered warriors, feared for the courage they showed on the battlefield. However they weren't just warriors; the Celts appreciated and celebrated the arts and philosophy immoderately.

Ancient Coins: Don't be Fooled by Fakes!

Fake coins are unfortunately found all over the world, and if you're an inexperienced collector you could fall victim to someone's scam without ever realizing. Thankfully, there are as probably as many honest sellers as there are dishonest.
