Good attempt to describe over 1000 years of coinage in the whole ancient world in less than 200 pages. Necessarily superficial, but an excellent start for a more detailed search. Good b/w illustrations on separate plates. Good index and bibliography

Well researched, heavily specialized contributions from numismatic scientists, few illustrations on separate plates. Index, bibliographies
