BYZANTINE. Western and Provincial Byzantine Coins: Vandals, Ostrogoths, Lombards and the Empires of Thessalonica, Nicaea and Trebizond. (1966 reprint). 344 pages with introduction and 43 plates. A practical and long valued handbook devoted to the western and provincial issues of the Byzantine and post Roman world, covering the Vandal, Ostrogothic, and Lombard series together with the successor empires of Thessalonica, Nicaea, and Trebizond. Especially useful as a straightforward identification reference, it offers strong plate material for quick comparison, attribution, and general desk use across a field that is not easily brought together in one volume. Covers with light wear and shelf dust, spine fading, showing age and use; pictorial dust jacket torn and rubbed with edge wear and price clipped, covers lightly soiled, overall the book is in VG condition. 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.
