Description
It might be nice to expand the current selection of Tex packages with parts of the teubner set of greek symbols.
Wikipedia's uses the following Teubner commands in their texvc, for use in articles containing ancient greek numerals and arithmetic:
\Coppa, \coppa, \varcoppa, \Digamma, \Koppa, \koppa, \Sampi, \sampi, \Stigma, \stigma, \varstigma
Some are additions, some are redefines of AMS.

There might be some fontsupport work in this, due to changed glyphs over the course of history....
