5.0 out of 5 stars Byzantine Coins and Their Values, April 25, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Byzantine Coins and Their Values: Coins Listed 2250 (Hardcover)
This book is perhaps the best single volume reference on Byzantine coins currently available. It is a great guide for both the beginner and novice collectors as well as the advanced collector on a budget who doesn't want spend a small fortune on the Dumbarton Oaks collection of Byzantine coin references.

This book is well organized and illustrated with many examples on the same page as the listing, rather than having to turn to the back of the book to view plates in order to check the picture of the coin. Coins are listed by decreasing denomination within a seperate section for each mint for every emperor. This makes it easier to identify a coin if only the mint or emperor is known. Cross references to other catalogue numbers such as those in Dumbarton Oaks are given for each listing as well.

Prices are listed in two different grades in UK pounds and are closer to real market values than Sear's other references on ancient coins and their values.
