GREEK. Seleucid Coins: A Comprehensive Catalogue, Part II: Seleucus IV through Antiochus XIII, Volume I (Introduction, Maps, and Catalogue), by Arthur Houghton, Catharine Lorber, and Oliver Hoover (New York, American Numismatic Society; Lancaster/London, Classical Numismatic Group, 2008), large 4to in teal cloth with matching pictorial dust jacket, approx. 705 pp, ISBN 978-0-9802387-0-9 (Vol. I). This is the go-to modern reference for the later Seleucid series, laid out reign-by-reign and mint-by-mint, and designed as the natural successor to Newell?s foundational work, with a clear user guide, abbreviations, a helpful historical and numismatic chronology (187 to 64 BC), and major corrections to Seleucid Coins Part I. The main catalogue covers the rulers from Seleucus IV Philopator through Antiochus XIII Asiaticus, giving concise historical introductions and detailed coinage listings with denominations, metrology, control systems, and cross-references, supported by a strong suite of keyed maps showing the Seleucid realm and mint networks; it closes with addenda and corrigenda to Part I plus an addenda section on satrapal coinage of Seleucus I in Babylonia. (Plates, indices, and bibliography are in the companion Volume II; this listing is for Volume I only.) Condition about new, bright clean jacket and cloth, sharp corners, tight square binding, and unmarked interiors.
