<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 5173312, member: 19463&quot;]When Victor Failmezger published his book on late Roman coins, I agreed to do the photos if he would include a CDR of the plates which was done for the first rtun but most people saw no need for the things.&nbsp; Today, I believe the best answer is a book with no photos but a link to online photos.&nbsp; If someone wanted to do the work, I believe it would be great to have a website showing coins arranged by Emmett numbers drawn from as many sources as possible.&nbsp; A book with 5000 coin photos would be cost prohibitive but searchable (by number, ruler and reverse), enlargeable photos would be no problem if the coins could be found.&nbsp; The great advantage of that system is it is always possible to add new finds so the plates would never go out of date.&nbsp; Of course such a project would require cooperation of many people and that is never easy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
