<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ian, post: 16464, member: 283&quot;]I couldn&#039;t advise on any specific book that covers all types of ancient coins. I can certainly mention a couple for Greek coins though.</p><p><br /></p><p>The best book I have come across to date for giving a general overview of the ancient greek world of coins is `Collecting Greek Coins&#039; by John Anthony. You should be able to pick up a copy relatively cheaply.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>`Greek Coins&#039; by Ian Carradice is another generalist book I would heartily recommend. I bought mine new from an ebay seller for a few dollars.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you read one or other of these and get bitten by the bug, THEN it is worthwhile looking at other literature (the bibliographies of both books will ensure that you won&#039;t suffer from `what to read next&#039;).</p><p>At that point, magazines such as the Celator might be a little bit more significant.&nbsp; ;-)</p><p><br /></p><p>Ian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
