<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 74867, member: 112&quot;]Medieval coins in general huh ? Well then - the book you want is <i>Coins of Mediveal Europe</i> by Professor Philip Grierson, published by B.A.Seaby Ltd. 1991. Now this book does not provide values at all and it does not go into a great deal of detail regarding individual coins per se, but it does provide an excellent overall look at Medieval European coinage covering the 5th century through the 15th century. And for somebody who is trying to determine their direction - this may be just the book you need&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>I would suggest that you determine your preferred direction before buying a lot of books. By the way - can you read French, Dutch and German ? Most of the books for this period are written in one of the 3. But fear not - learning the numismatic terms in all 3 is not all that hard. And that much alone is enough to get you by at first.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I do - I have found many of the coins in my collection on ebay. But there are rules that need to be followed for using ebay. As long as you do - you likely won&#039;t have any problems. The first of those rules is to know what you are buying - so the books <u>definitely</u> come first&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
