Minerva is featured on roman coinage however this was not mentioned in the article. I have added a short paragraph with reference to American Numismatic Society database. I have added an image which I have contributed to Wikipedia Commons. This is my first real edit which involved adding text to an article so please feel free to give me any feedback.

I want to list a few things that could be researched and possibly added to this article:
|
|||
|
What was the Goddess Minerva before she was compared to Athena? What are the differences between the two?
|
|||
|
As the goddess of wisdom, did she have an impact on Philosophy?
|
|||
|
Is it time to restructure this article?
|
|||
|
eg: Put all of the “Use by societies and governments” “Public monuments” under a master heading of “Legacy” or “current uses” and these can be sub headings? [[User:Sebastian Trejo|Sebastian Trejo]] ([[User talk:Sebastian Trejo|talk]]) 21:17, 15 September 2017 (UTC)

:As I understand it, before she was syncretized with Athena, Minerva was actually a [[lunar goddess]]. Minerva was not nearly as important in the Roman pantheon as Athena was in the Greek. Generally, Minerva was more closely associated with weaving and household crafts; whereas Athena was primarily the patron and protectress of the city. From what I have heard so far, your restructuring idea sounds like a good one. –[[User:Katolophyromai|Katolophyromai]] ([[User talk:Katolophyromai|talk]]) 02:51, 16 September 2017 (UTC)
