<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2627555, member: 19463&quot;]To be anything approaching comprehensive and stay under $75, the book would cover a very small part of a subject.&nbsp; An example would be Favorito, <b>The Bronze Coinage of Ancient Syracuse</b>. </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;d suggest you try a non catalog format book with textual information and decent photos like Jenkins, <b>Ancient Greek Coins</b>.&nbsp; </p><p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Ancient-Greek-Coins-G-K-Jenkins/dp/0214653447/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1485014989&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=g+k+jenkins+ancient+greek+coins" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.amazon.com/Ancient-Greek-Coins-G-K-Jenkins/dp/0214653447/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1485014989&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=g+k+jenkins+ancient+greek+coins" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/Ancient-Greek-Coins-G-K-Jenkins/dp/0214653447/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1485014989&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=g+k+jenkins+ancient+greek+coins</a></p><p><br /></p><p>There is a later (1989) edition of this with 100 fewer pages that I have not seen.&nbsp; I have the 310 page 1972 edition and like it.&nbsp; Some will say a book like this is out of date but I will point out that it covers coins that are really out of date.</p><p><br /></p><p>I should point out that anyone that likes ERIC and I have completely different tastes in books.&nbsp; We have many times here recommended Anthony, Collecting Greek Coins which is offensively cheap, very informative and not at all comprehensive.</p><p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Collecting-Greek-Coins-John-Anthony/dp/0582503108/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1485015599&amp;sr=8-1-fkmr0&amp;keywords=john+anthony+collection+greek+coins" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.amazon.com/Collecting-Greek-Coins-John-Anthony/dp/0582503108/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1485015599&amp;sr=8-1-fkmr0&amp;keywords=john+anthony+collection+greek+coins" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/Collecting-Greek-Coins-John-Anthony/dp/0582503108/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1485015599&amp;sr=8-1-fkmr0&amp;keywords=john+anthony+collection+greek+coins</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
