{"product_id":"mints-dies-and-currency-1","title":"Mints, Dies and Currency","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe studies assembled in this volume are dedicated to the memory of Albert Baldein, a professional numismatist whose chief interest lay in helping other numismatists, professionals, students and collectors alike, some of whom record their appreciations here. The contributions, though they are drawn from a wide variety of fields - Greek, Roman, Dark Age, Byzantine, English, Scottish, Irish and European medieval coins, and medals - are all concerned with one or more facets of the theme set out in the title. Within the general concept, the essays deal with a diversity of subjects: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e* identification of mints \u003cbr\u003e* attribution of coins to specific mints\u003cbr\u003e* coinage current in particular periods\u003cbr\u003e* composition of groups of coins in a given series\u003cbr\u003e* establishment of the correct sequence of issues of such groups. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe essays also demonstrate the use of particular numismatic techniques such as die-linking, the analysis of hoards and their statistics, the minute observation of changes in titulature and inscriptions and comparison of portrait styles. There is much new, exciting and well-illustrated material for numismatists, and chapters such as those on Scottish mints and Hadrian's COS III coins will be of interest to historians.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54255326789976,"sku":"9781138864870","price":65.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781138864870.jpg?v=1769008522","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/mints-dies-and-currency-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
