<p>[QUOTE="akeady, post: 3923125, member: 83175"]There are 10 volumes of RIC, but some are in several parts and many of the volumes are being actively worked on. Vol. V is old and in 2 parts; vol. IV was in 3 parts, but they have been published as one large volume. Vol. II part 3 was published recently, covering Hadrian; II.1 appeared in 2007 (the Flavians) and II.2 is due in 2021 or 2022. The original vol. II from 1926 (I think) is still the only volume covering Nerva and Trajan. Only a few volumes are in print, the others you'll have to find secondhand. Spink's website seems to be offline right now - offhand, I think they have vol. I, vol II.1, vol II.3, vol. VIII and vol.

I have one odd volume of it - I'd guess it's been out of print for a century, more or less. The main place Cohen's legacy lives on is in the numbering system used in RSC, which is a series worth getting if you're interested in silver coins - cheap and fairly comprehensive. RRC at least is available new, and cheaply, as it was recently released in paperback format - I see it for less than £70 including delivery from amazon.co.uk. ATB, Aidan.[/QUOTE]
