<p>[QUOTE="Valentinian, post: 2720429, member: 44316"]I just reread Doug's review of ERIC II. As a book lover and user of reference books multiple times every day, I want to know about a book the sorts of things Doug discusses. Personally, I am more interested in the big picture than individual coin details. I'll bet most owners of RIC use it to assign coin numbers more than anything else, but when I write a website (e.g. my site on late Roman AE</p><p><a href="http://augustuscoins.com/ed/ricix/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://augustuscoins.com/ed/ricix/" rel="nofollow">http://augustuscoins.com/ed/ricix/</a> )</p><p>the text discussion is extremely helpful. There are books that would help you understand, say, coinage of the Julio-Claudians. If you want ID numbers, ERIC II has your coin. If you want to understand coins and issues of any given emperor, it helps only as much as a complete list could. It is about coins, not coinage, if you make the distinction.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
