I MPORTANT I NFORMATION FOR A LL B UYERS All lots in DNW auctions are nominally reserved at the bid step which reflects 80% of the lower estimate figure, unless otherwise instructed by the vendor. All multiple lots (lots containing two or more items) with the exception of designated sets of coins or paper money, are sold as viewed and not subject to return. Buyers are recommended to view such lots. Lots marked ‘x’ in dark blue are subject to importation duty of 5% on the hammer price unless exported outside the EU. I NVESTMENT G OLD The symbol G adjacent to a lot indicates that, if purchased by a VAT-registered trader, he or she may claim back the VAT element on the buyers’ premium from HM Revenue and Customs. www.dnw.co.uk Important Notice Advance Bidding Facility We advise all clients to take advantage of our easy-to-use advance bidding facility, which provides you with total control over your bids right up to the point that a lot is offered for sale. Bids made online cannot be seen by others and do not go live until the actual moment that the lot in question is being offered for sale. All bids can be easily altered or cancelled by the bidder prior to this point. An automated email will be sent confirming all bids and alterations. Please use our website www.dnw.co.uk to register prior to bidding online. There is no additional charge for online bidding. It is recommended that all bidders execute their own bids, either prior to the auction by using this facility or live as the auction is taking place. We strongly recommend that those following the auction online register to bid at least 10 minutes prior to the start of each session. Whilst we are still happy to execute all bids submitted in writing or by phone, fax or any other method, it should be noted that all bids left with us will be entered at our offices using the same bidding facility to which all clients now have access. There is, therefore, no better way of ensuring the accuracy of your advance bids than to place them yourself online.

But success has been less frequent, because the knowledge of coins is essentially a knowledge of details, and small treatises are apt to be un- readable when they contain too many references to particular coins, and unprofltably vague when such references are avoided. I cannot hope that I have passed safely between these two dangers ; indeed, my desire has been to avoid the second at all risk of encountering the former. At the same time it may be said that this book is not meant for the collector who desires only to identify the coins which he happens to possess, while caring little for the wider problems of history, art, mythology, and religion, to which coins sometimes furnish the only key.

  • Byzantine Coinage
    BYZANTINE COINAGE Philip Grierson Dumbarton Oaks Research Library and Collection Washington, D.C. © 1999 Dumbarton Oaks Trustees for Harvard University Washington, D.C. All rights reserved Printed in the United States of America Second Edition Cover illustrations: Solidus of Justinian II (enlarged 5:1) ISBN 0-88402-274-9 Preface his publication essentially consists of two parts. The first part is a second Tedition of Byzantine Coinage, originally published in 1982 as number 4 in the series Dumbarton Oaks Byzantine Collection Publications. Although the format has been slightly changed, the content is fundamentally the same. The numbering of the illustrations,* however, is sometimes different, and the text has been revised and expanded, largely on the advice and with the help of Cécile Morrisson, who has succeeded me at Dumbarton Oaks as advisor for Byzantine numismatics. Additions complementing this section are tables of val- ues at different periods in the empire’s history, a list of Byzantine emperors, and a glossary. The second part of the publication reproduces, in an updated and slightly shorter form, a note contributed in 1993 to the International Numismatic Commission as one of a series of articles in the commission’s Compte-rendus sketching the histories of the great coin cabinets of the world. Its appearance in such a series explains why it is written in the third person and not in the first. It is a condensation of a much longer unpublished typescript, produced for the Coin Room at Dumbarton Oaks, describing the formation of the collection and its publication. * The coins illustrated are in the Dumbarton Oaks and Whittemore collections and are re- produced actual size unless otherwise indicated.

Abstract The messages in the imagery on Byzantine coins, although often neglected by scholars, were a key means of projecting imperial power. Emperors could project power via dress, ceremonial, and displays, but these methods would not have reached all subjects. Byzantine coins had the advantage of reaching all subjects, as the Byzantine economy was fundamentally monetized. Military symbols (figures, dress, and weapons), whose study has been rather overlooked, formed an important part of this imagery. Whilst military symbols disappeared from Byzantine coins in the early eighth century, and were absent for some three centuries, they were reintroduced in the mid-eleventh century and appeared until 1394/5.

  • Nummi Serrati, Bigati Et Alii. Coins of the Roman Republic in East-Central Europe North of the Sudetes and the Carpathians
    Chapter 2 Outline history of Roman Republican coinage The study of the history of the coinage of the Roman state, including that of the Republican Period, has a history going back several centuries. In the past two hundred years in particular there has been an impressive corpus of relevant literature, such as coin catalogues and a wide range of analytical-descriptive studies. Of these the volume essential in the study of Roman Republican coinage defi nitely continues to be the catalogue provided with an extensive commentary written by Michael H. Crawford over forty years ago.18 Admittedly, some arguments presented therein, such as the dating proposed for particular issues, have met with valid criticism,19 but for the study of Republican coin fi nds from northern territories, substantially removed from the Mediterranean world, this is a minor matter. In the study of coin fi nds recovered in our study area from pre-Roman and Roman period prehistoric contexts, we have very few, and usually quite vague, references to an absolute chronology (i.e. the age determined in years of the Common Era) therefore doubts as to the very precise dating of some of the coin issues are the least of our problems. This is especially the case when these doubts are raised mostly with respect to the older coins of the series. These types seem to have entered the territory to the north of the Sudetes and the Carpathians a few score, and in some cases, even over a hundred, years after their date of minting. It is quite important on the other hand to be consistent in our use of the chronological fi ndings related to the Roman Republican coinage, in our case, those of M.
