Rare classic. 1876.
This is the text that changed the art of mere “coin collecting” into the art of numismatics for the ancient and modern world of the day. This classic was written with the historian, archaeologist, and the amateur and professional coin collector in mind.
Several hundred pages, illustrated for the time period, give detailed descriptions for coins of ancient and more modern Western Civilization. Included are special sections on Roman coins, Greece, Medieval Europe, and more modern times (up to the 19th Century, of course)
