David R. Sear:
"Although almost 90 years old, Barclay V. Head's encyclopedic "Historia Numorum" remains a magnificent achievement of early 20th century scholarship and as a single-volume work has never been equaled since. It contains such a wealth of information that every collector of Greek coins is strongly advised to acquire "

BEDOUKIAN P. Z. – Coinage of cilician Armenia. Revised Edition. Danbury 1979. XXXI+5+494 pp., 12 pl. This important e rare book is an excellent reference to not only collectors of Cilician Armenian coins, but also to readers interested in Cilician Armenia in general. Collectors should note that every day more and more coins are being found in the hands of individuals and in hoards in Syria, Turkey and Lebanon, and internet sales makes them readily available to collectors everywhere. Every day the corpus becomes less and less reliable. However, this book is far more than a corpus, and a reader will get a "bigger picture" of coins of Cilician Armenia, and continue to use this for its greater knowledge, and just corpus. For example, Roman coins are being found in record numbers in the Balkans. Many examples of the 4-5 century coins that were once considered unique have the additions of dozens of coins to their numbers, and some finds are even unlisted in the books. Numismatic books such as this or RIC (Roman Imperial Coinage) should be used as reference and not as a formal catalogue without imperfections. Though there were no values of coins, I believe that in a sense the author was correct in not doing this, because after all, one never knows what a new day will bring.
