Description

Rarities of the Peloponnesos

Lambros, Joannos P. ΑΝΑΓΡΑΦΗ ΤΩΝ ΝΟΜΙΣΜΑΤΩΝ ΤΗΣ ΚΥΡΙΩΣ ΕΛΛΑΔΟΣ. ΠΕΛΟΠΟΝΝΗΣΟΣ. Athens: Ekdotes Georgios Kasdones, 1891. 8vo, later tan quarter calf, gilt; spine with five raised bands, ruled and lettered in gilt; decorative endpapers. 162, (2) pages; 16 very fine plates of coins. Half-title coming loose; marginal staining to some plates. Very good. An elusive work. Babelon 210. Kroh 33: “a 1891 work published in modern Greek [with] 16 exceptional plates showing all the Peloponnesian gold, silver and Æ rarities one can think of (and more). Its value lies in exactly that: an excellent visual reference for rarities. Original editions are quite rare.”
