Price 25s. Large Square octavo, illustrated by numerous examples of the
most exquisite Greek and Roman Coins, executed in fac-simile of the
Originals, in actual relief, and in their respective metals.

ANCIENT COINS AND MEDALS: An Historical Account of the Origin of Coined
Money, the Development of the Art of Coining in Greece and her Colonies,
its progress during the extension of the Roman Empire, and its decline as
an Art with the decay of that power. By H.N. HUMPHREYS.

"This work is a condensation of all that is known respecting the coins of
ancient nations, and a lucid and well-arranged narrative of monetary
history. A novel and excellent mode of illustration has been adopted,
representing the coins in exact fac-simile in gold, silver, and copper,
produced by casts from the originals, many of which would be quite
unattainable, and all costly."--_Art Journal._

"It is needless to remark how desirable an addition such a work as this
must be to the library of the historian, the classical scholar, and the
clergyman, no less than to the artist."--_Daily News._
