<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Curtisimo, post: 2627261, member: 83845&quot;]Hello coin friends!</p><p><br /></p><p>I recently picked up a copy of the Encyclopedia of Roman Empirial Coins and I am very glad that I did.&nbsp; It&#039;s a solid book that is surprisingly comprehensive for a one volume tome (though it does weigh almost 10 lbs!)</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]577414[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>I am ready to buy a new numismatic book related to Ancient Greece so that my Greek coins don&#039;t feel left out <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. I&#039;m looking for something that covers a specific region or city-state of Classical Greece and covers the topic comprehensively. For instance a book about the coins of Miletus that covers everything from the change in weight standards over time, denominations, types, how to date the different series as well as historical background on events that led to changes in the coinage.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m very interested in learning more about the different weight standards also.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m pretty open to any region so long as the book in part covers the late 5th century BC. I&#039;d also like to spend under $75.</p><p><br /></p><p>So what do you guys think? Any suggestions?</p><p><br /></p><p>Even if you don&#039;t have any suggestions you should post a picture of your favorite Ancient Greek reference book![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
