<p>[QUOTE="Ardatirion, post: 1462756, member: 9204"]For ancient coins, there are several levels of literature. First, there are beginner guides, like the ones by Wayne Sayles, that give a general overview the series, but do not provide anything resembling a catalog. Intermediate books, like the Sear volumes or David Vagi's works for Roman coins, provide more detailed information and a basic, but often incomplete, catalog. Then there are detailed catalogs with a broad reach, like the Roman Imperial Coinage volumes. Beyond that, there are specialized works for specific areas, such as the coinage of a particular city in a particular metal or denomination. Finally, there are die studies, which show each individual die used to strike an issue - these can cover something as specific as a single mint's emission from a single year, or something as broad as the coinage of the Jewish revolt. Most series have at least a basic, beginner's guide and general catalog, but many lack anything more specific.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
