This volume presents details of 57 coin hoards from Roman Britain, all but two of which were discovered within the last ten years. They include a unique group of 110 plated denarii from northern Suffolk, a rare hoard of 2nd C gold aurei from Didcot Suffolk, and a late 4th C hoard of nearly 7,500 coins from Bishops Cannings, Wiltshire. All the hoards are listed in detail and the catalogues are complemented by pot drawings, discussions where relevant and plates.

A report on seven hoards of Greek and Greek Imperial coins, four hoards of Roman Imperial coins and catalogues of six other collections of mostly provenanced coins.

This volume presents the Greek coins in the collection of Robert Edward Hart (1878-1946), notable for its broad coverage of all the Greek world in the Classical and Hellenistic periods, and for the fine quality of its coins.

The development and use of coinage in the Greek world is surveyed in this book from its introduction in the 7th century BC to the late Hellenistic period. Coins can illuminate many facets of history and here the focus is on the reasons why they were circulated and how they were used. As a result, there is a wealth of information that has been gathered in one place for the first time. An opening chapter introduces the study of Greek coins, outlining the development of modern methods of research. This is followed by chapters discussing the invention of coinage and its spread to all parts of the Greek world. Coinage production and design and the role of coins in the life of people are then discussed, followed by chapters on the Classical period, Alexander the Great and the late Hellenistic world. As well as being a succint and readable account for students and collectors of coins, all those interested in the ancient world should find this a fresh and stimulating source of information.

The first volume of this catalogue deals with the issues of the Greek cities in Spain, Gaul, Italy, Sicily, Macedon and Thrace, Illyria and Central Greece, the Peloponnese, the Aegean Islands and Crete; also the Punic and Romano-Celtiberian coinage of Spain, and the Celtic coinages of Gaul, Britain (uninscribed issues), and Central Europe. The primary arrangement is geographical (west to east) and the listings are divided between Archaic issues (before circa 480 BC) and Classical and Hellenistic (later 5th century down to 1st century BC).
