ANCIENT LITERATURE LOTS. Jewish and Israel coinage references. A particularly useful and increasingly hard to replace working group, bringing together four standard and practical references for Jewish, Judaean, and Israel related numismatics, with real value for attribution, historical context, and day to day catalogue use. Included are: (1) Howard B. Brin, Catalog of Judaea Capta Coinage, Emmett Publishing Company, a focused catalogue of the important Judaea Capta issues of Vespasian, Titus, and Domitian, especially useful for type comparison and attribution within this widely collected series; (2) A. Reifenberg, Ancient Jewish Coins, Rubin Mass, Jerusalem, a classic overview of the ancient Jewish series, still widely cited and relied upon for identification and historical framing; (3) Rev. E. Rogers, M.A., A Handy Guide to Jewish Coins, Spink & Son Ltd, London, a compact and practical guide long valued for quick reference and now seldom encountered in the market; and (4) The Rosenberger Israel Collection of Coins, a dedicated Israel related collection reference, scarce in this format and very useful alongside the standard Judaean and Jewish works. A strong mixed reference lot, with each volume useful in its own right and together forming a highly practical shelf group for the specialist collector or researcher. Covers with light wear and shelf dust, spine fading, showing age and use; overall the books are 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.
