The Beginner's Guide to Identifying Byzantine Coins by Prue Fitts (Spiral Bound, 2015)

About this product

Product Information

This book covers coins of the Eastern Roman Empire from Anastasius I (491-518) to Constantine XI (1448-1453) with an overview of the period of Diocletian in 284 to the succession of Anastasius I as an introduction to the coinage. It is not intended to be a scholarly book but rather a quick reference for coin identification. It does not cover the holdover aureusfrom the Western Empire, coins from the collateral areas of the Arab-Byzantine, or the coins of the Turks and other successors who produced coins of similar design. It also does not cover forgeries.

  • Very Readable Byzantine Coin Book

    I like it. It's the type of book you can actually sit down and browse through and improve your general knowledge,and with lots of pictures. For someone with a small interest in Byzantine coins, it helps me identify the coins I mostly come across(bronze) as to period and emperor.I'm glad I b ought it.
