Bahrfeldt, M. Nachträge und Berichtigungen zur Münzkunde der Römischen Republik im Anschluss an Babelon’s Verzeichniss der Consular-Münzen. Band I & II. Wien; Selbstverlag des Verfassers, 1897 &1900. Thick 8vo., pp. ix, (1), 316; ix, (1), 112; 13 + 6 fine plates, a few line illustrations in the text. Both parts attractively bound into a single volume in contemporary red morocco and marbled boards with the original wrappers preserved, the spine ruled and lettered direct in gilt. Rubbed and worn at extremities, the joints scuffed, internally almost as new and almost fine overall. Most important and seldom offered, complete sets are very rarely seen.
The first two of the three parts of Bahrfeldt’s famous Nachträge, originally published in the Numismatische Zeitschrift and reprinted in small number with each copy signed and numbered by the author on the limitation page, these numbered 10 and 4 respectively. Clain-Stefanelli 3715*, “An essential addition to Babelon’s work.”
