Jiří Veselský: Coins of the Roman Republic

Dějiny - Stories - Catalogue

A fantastic new publication for all those interested in coins of the Roman Republic from the pen of author Jiří Veselý can be found in our e-shop www.TGW.cz. Weighing almost 3 kilograms in 544 pages, this impressive book provides a comprehensive view of the coinage of the entire vast territory of the Roman Republic.

The book is not, however, a mere catalogue. The author presents an overall view of coinage. Individual periods, personalities and historical events are described in a way that creates an overall context for the origins of each coinage and its motifs.

The entire book, on large format and high quality thick coated paper, is a perfect reference book and catalogue of the individual coins of the period. In the catalogue section you will find all the coins illustrated, with descriptions, dating, weights and world catalogue numbers.

But what I find most valuable about the whole publication is the immense effort the author has made to obtain high quality pictorial documentation for most of the coins in museums and auction houses, so that the owner of this book will get a truly complete overview and idea of coinage in the Roman Republic.
