The definitive corpus of the Bar Kokhba coinage, cataloguing 6,393 coins with 602 die couples and establishing the standard framework for attribution, die study, and further research into this major Jewish series. A fundamental scholarly reference, long valued for the precision of its corpus structure and its lasting importance for the study of one of the most historically charged and complex issues of ancient Jewish numismatics. Inscribed by the author to Arthur Houghton. Covers with light wear and shelf dust, spine fading, showing age and use; 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.
