ROMAN. Coinage and History of the Roman Empire, c82 B.C. to A.D. 480, David L. Vagi, complete two-volume set, Volume One (History) and Volume Two (Coinage), a major illustrated reference of about 1,294 pages that follows the 550 year span from the late Republic through the Western Empire, structured into twelve clear epochs, each introduced with a concise historical and social overview, then supported by an extensive numismatic section with practical guidance on types, legends, denominations, dating, mints, and values, followed by a large catalog and value tables with useful concordances (including Crawford and RPC), plus bibliography and both alphabetical and chronological indexes, widely regarded as an updated, scholarship-aware tool for collectors and researchers. Paper covers show visible handling wear, but the books themselves present in near-perfect condition overall, clean and very well kept. From the personal reference library of David Allen, a well known numismatist, formed over more than 50 years and used as a long term reference for research, attribution, and catalogue work.
