POLAND. Handbuch der polnischen Numismatik. Marian Gumowski. Graz, Akademische Druck- und Verlagsanstalt, 1960. Hardback, publisher?s green cloth with maroon lettering, with frontispiece portrait of the author. A compact but wide-ranging survey of Polish coinage from the earliest medieval denars through later groschen and gulden issues into the eighteenth century, arranged to support both attribution and historical understanding. Gumowski sets out the coinage in clear chronological sequences by reign and region, treating royal issues alongside regional and civic series, with useful coverage of Danzig, Lithuania, and Livonia, and steady attention to legends, denomination systems, weight standards, mint organisation, and major monetary reforms. Tables and concise notes tie types to ordinances, mintmasters, and historical change, with helpful references throughout for further work. A superb copy, bright and clean, with sharp corners, a firm square binding, and fresh, unmarked pages.
