<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Valentinian, post: 3006044, member: 44316&quot;]There is a two-volume work that does exactly this for Greek coins. <i>Testimonia Numaria</i> by John Melville Jones has &quot;Texts and Translations&quot; in volume 1, with 535 pages reproducing and translating 927 passages. Volume 2, &quot;Commentary,&quot;&nbsp; comments on each passage over the course of 390 pages. Passages are organized by topic. What I found most interesting is how many passages are difficult to interpret with certainty and how many are flat out wrong about coins given what we know now. (Ancient commentators on the distant past often got things wrong.) </p><p><br /></p><p>If you want to know what the ancients said about Greek coinage, this is the book for you.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
