Rutter K., Historia Numorum, Italy. The British Museum Press, London 2001. The Greeks began to settle in southern Italy in the 8th century BC. Their new cities quickly flourished, and there is no better evidence for their prosperity than the abundant coinages that most of them produced. "Historia Numorum - Italy" has been written to provide a clear and detailed account of the coinage of this prosperous part of Italy, which was sometimes influenced by the Greek model. The book also includes an account of the coinages of cities of Etruria and north-eastern Italy. Arranged overall by geographical area, the mints within each area are then listed alphabetically; included are details of the historical or geographical background, and an examination of the metals, weight standards and chronology. At the end of the book is a plate section containing a wide selection of illustrations of the mints discussed, as well as four maps of the area. The book is fully indexed for ease of reference; the indexes include reverse types and proper names. Hardcover, 223pp., 43 b/w plates. Very good condition

Sear D., Roman Coins and Their Values Volume I – The Republic and the Twelve Caesars 280 BC – AD 96. The Millennium Edition, Spink reprinted, London 2006. The original edition of Sear's Roman Coins and Their Values was published by Seaby thirty-six years ago and has been through four revisions (1970, 1974, 1981 and 1988). However, the publication of the 'Millennium Edition' of this popular work makes a radical departure from previous editions. The catalogue entries have been expanded to include a virtually complete listing of the entire Roman Republican series, as well as more comprehensive coverage of the much larger and more complex Imperial series. Greater emphasis is now placed on the precise chronology and place of mintage of each type and extensive coverage is given to the important series of billon and bronze coins struck at Alexandria over a period of more than 300 years. The valuations have been exhaustively researched from recent auction records and fixed price catalogues and many professional numismatists have contributed their valuable opinions on specific series. Prices (both in British pounds and US dollars) are now expressed in either two or three grades of preservation for each entry, usually 'VF' and 'EF' for precious metal issues, and 'F', 'VF' and 'EF' for Imperial Bronzes. Perhaps most importantly for the collector, the number of photographic illustrations in the text has been increased, and their quality improved. Expansion on this scale has inevitably led to a need to divide the work into more than one volume, but collectors and dealers will now find it of much greater value both as a source of information and as a comprehensive work of reference for this vast and complex series. Hardcover with jacket, 532pp., b/w illustrations. NEW

Sear D., Roman Coins and Their Values Volume II – The Accession of Nerva to the Overthrow of the Severan Dynasty AD96 – 235. Spink reprinted, London 2010. The current revision of this popular work marks a radical departure from the envisaged aims of the previous editions. In this second volume the catalogue entries have been greatly expanded to provide more comprehensive coverage of the vast and complex imperial series of the second and early third centuries AD. Greater emphasis is now placed on the precise chronology and place of mintage of each type and special attention is paid to the important series of billon and bronze coins struck at the Egyptian capital of Alexandria. The valuations have been exhaustively researched from recent auction records and fixed price catalogues and many professional numismatists have contributed their valuable opinions on specific series. Hardcover with jacket, 696pp.,b/w illustrations. NEW

Sear D.R., Roman Coins and Their Values Volume III – The Accession of Maximinus I to the Death of Carinus AD 235-285. Spink, London 2005. This third volume continues the comprehensive revision of this era, and covers in detail the next fifty years; a very different period during which the Empire came perilously close to total disintegration under the pressure of foreign invasions and seemingly interminable civil war. The economy also collapsed and with it the Imperial coinage, a desperate situation which was only partially alleviated by the currency reform of Aurelian undertaken late in his reign. The complexities of the mint attributes in this chaotic period - lacking as the do in almost instance the name or initial of the responsible mint - have been dealt with in light of recent scholarship. Also included are detailed listings of the Antoninianus coinage not covered in the 'Roman Silver Coins' series. Contains clear black and white photographs and values for VF and EF coins, in both UK sterling and US dollars. Hardcover with jacket, 536pp., b/w illustrations. NEW

Sear D., Roman Coins and Their Values Volume IV – Tetrarchies and the Rise of the House of Constantine: The Collapse of Paganism and the Triumph of Christianity, Diocletian to Constantine I, AD 284-337. Spink, London 2011. The newly published fourth volume in this classic series covers the coinage of the period AD 284-337 together with background information on this history of each reign. With current values in £ and US$. Hardcover with jacket, 552pp., b/w illustrations. NEW

Sear D., Roman Coins and Their Values V. The Christian Empire: The Later Constantinian Dynasty and the Houses of Valentinian and Theodosius and Their Successors, Constantine II to Zeno, AD 337-491. Spink, London 2014. Hardcover with jacket, 576pp., b/w illustrations. NEW The current revision of this popular work marks a radical departure from the envisioned aims of the original edition. This fifth and final volume of the 'Millennium edition' contains a comprehensive listing of the Roman coinage of the period AD 337-491 together with background information on the history of each reign and the principal characteristics of its coinage. The catalogue is organized primarily by ruler with the issues then subdivided by denomination and by reverse legend and type. This arrangement combines the alphabetical ease of reference of Cohen's work with the scholarship of RIC and other modern studies, which are normally based on classification by mint. As the eastern and western halves of the Empire gradually drifted apart politically and militarily in the fifth century, the imperial coinage becomes increasingly complex. There is a tendency for the standard works of reference to be very selective in their coverage of the series as a whole and in this volume an attempt has been made to present the material as clearly and concisely as possible, in order to facilitate ease of use by the collector. The century and a half covered by this volume, from the death of Constantine the Great to the death of the eastern emperor Zeno, witnessed the initial stages of the Christian Roman Empire in the eastern Mediterranean area and the final death throes of paganism. It also saw the total collapse of Roman authority in the Empire's western provinces and its replacement by a patchwork of barbarian kingdoms. The imperial coinage similarly underwent many fundamental changes during this period and these are chronicled in detail in the text. For the succeeding coinage of the Eastern Empire, commencing with Anastasius I (AD 491-518), the reader is referred to the companion publication Byzantine Coins and Their Values (second revised edition, 1987).
