<p>[QUOTE="THCoins, post: 2421660, member: 57364"]I only have the handbook of coins of Bactria of the Hoover series. And i think it is no good. There is an unaccetable amount of errors througout the book. Most seem to be due to sloppy editing. Descriptions not fitting with photos, duplicate photos with different descriptions. But also paragraphs ending in the middle of a sentence. Factual errors also are numerous, like many kharosthi legend transcriptions contain errors or are with the wrong coin. As an introductory catalog it is okay. But as a reference i was disappointed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
