<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Only a Poor Old Man, post: 5138145, member: 111037&quot;]New books arrived... Although &#039;new&#039; doesn&#039;t quite describe them properly as one is from the 60s and the other from the 70s.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1205533[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>The &#039;Historia Numorum&#039; is actually my second copy. A couple of months back I got a first edition from the 1890s in pretty good condition and I decided I didn&#039;t want to wear it down, so when I found a pretty affordable Spink edition from the 60s I was happy to get it. I also decided to get the &#039;Byzantine Coins&#039; one as I seem to be getting a lot more interested in Byzantine coinage lately. I had a good rummage through the pages earlier and I have the feeling I will really enjoy it. I find that I enjoy early coin books quite a lot. I bought a couple of the usual modern ones recently and I found them quite disappointing. They were just like catalogues. What is the point in that when the internet is just a click away.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
