Description

Le Rider, Georges. MONNAIES CRÉTOISES DU Ve. AU Ier. SIÈCLE AV. J-C. Paris: École Française d’Athènes, 1966. 4to, original olive-green cloth, gilt. (6), 345, (3) pages; 2 folding maps; 48 very fine plates, 42 depicting coins. Near fine. Études crétoises, XV. Very scarce. Clain-Stefanelli 2577. Daehn 4415. Grierson 62. Kroh 51: “an extremely detailed study of the coinage rather than simply a catalogue of types. Each variety is discussed at length, and the holdings of all major museums are examined in detail. This work also has the distinction of having the finest plates of exceptional photographs I have ever seen in any work of its type. This is simply the ultimate work on the coinage of Crete.” Ex Alain Weil Library, signed by him on the flyleaf.
