About this product

Product Information

It is 101 years since Seth Stevenson's magisterial Dictionary of Roman Coins was first published, and there have been several direct reprints since which indicate its continuing value for students of the subject. In this new Directionary of Ancient Roman Coins , Professor Melville Jones has produced a work an a smaller scale that brings together in a more compact form the results of recent scholarship. Coin photographs has been used to illustrate the entries. Created on the traditional A-Z basis, this Dictionary lists deities, denominations, subjects and topics that need explanation or elucidation. It is a dictionary that will be invaluable to all numismatists concerned with Roman coins, Republican and Imperial, and of use to anyone who is interested in the world of ancient Rome. Like its predecessor on ancient Greek coins by Professor Melville Jones, this dictionary arose from the recognized need for such a compilation in his teaching in the Department of Classics and Ancient History in the University of Western Australia Professor Melville Jones is already working on a third companion volume on Byzantine coins.
