lm370 - Les monnaies romaines BRILLANT Marie, SCHMITT Laurent

Twenty years after its first publication, ‘Monnaies romaines’ is back in an expanded edition. This handbook provides a clear and accessible overview of eight centuries of coin history, from the first coinage of the Republic to the Roman Empire’s fall.
Much more than a mere catalog, this work shines a light on Rome’s political, economic and cultural development through its monetary production. Each coin is described in detail and placed in its historical context, with information on its condition, sales price and current market trends.
This new work is intended for both enthusiasts and curious novices alike. Far from an academic treatise, it is a true discovery guide which demonstrates that Roman coins, while largely unknown, are yet accessible and often constitute amazing testimonies from the past.
