Description

Silver Coinage of Rhegion

Herzfelder, Hubert. CATALOGUE DES TETRADRACHMES ET DRACHMES DE RHEGION (ENVIRON 461–350 AV. J.-C.). Offprint from the Revue numismatique. Paris, 1956. 8vo, later tan quarter morocco; spine with two raised bands, lettered in brown; brown endpapers. (7)–87, (1) pages; 20 fine plates of coins. Fine. Scarce and important. While the stand-alone volume of Rhegion published by Herzfelder the following year included additional material, this offprint features the full complement of plates. See Clain-Stefanelli 2122*: “Basic reference on Rhegium, including latest research.” Daehn 2820. Grierson 63. Kroh 18 (4.5 stars): “This is an excellent die-study and reference for the beautiful silver coinage featuring the popular facing lion-scalp in high relief.”
