    "Greek Imperial Coins and Their Values, the Local Coinages of the Roman Empire, By David R. Sear. 1982. It was revolutionary in that it lists most of the issuing mints by Emperor rather than geographically. This was done because it is usually a simple matter to identify the ruler but often impossible (because of missing or badly-struck legends) to easily identify the issuing city. Of course, only one coin (rarely two) from each mint are listed, but it does give assistance in that all legends are spelled out (helping with match-ups) and it narrows the search by mints quite a bit. Quasi-Autonomous and Contemporary coins (such as the later Parthian, Celtic, Mauretanian and Bosporous Kingdoms) are also listed and valuations in Fine condition for bronzes and VF for silver . In print at $80."
