Renner, Victor de. CATALOGUE DE LA COLLECTION DES MÉDAILLES GRECQUES DE M. LE CHEVALIER LÉOPOLD WALCHER DE MOLTHEIN. First edition. Paris et Vienne, 1895. 4to, original printed paper covers. Engraved frontispiece portrait with tissue guard; vii, (1), 294, (2) pages; 3310 descriptions; 30 fine plates of coins and 1 plate of monograms. An unopened, untrimmed copy, with the spine starting to split, else fine. The handsomely produced catalogue of the Léopold Walcher de Molthein collection, the only source for fine illustrations of several hundred of the best coins later sold in the 1901 Cahn sale of the collection. The Cahn catalogue was written with the assumption that most bidders would have a copy of this work and, as a result, it is unplated and takes a rather minimalist approach to the cataloguing. John Spring, in his Ancient Coin Auction Catalogues, cites this catalogue along with the sale catalogue. Most copies encountered are much the worse for wear: this is distinctly above average, and would be a good candidate for a fine binding. Babelon 232. Clain-Stefanelli 1999. Spring 63 [also listed under "Most important sales of ancient Greek coins"].
