Germanic Coinages: Charlemagne through Wilhelm II. William D. Craig. First edition, 1954. 8vo, tan cloth with black titled panel to upper board and spine, vii + 242 pages, illustrated with in-text cuts, armorial devices, and tables. A wide-ranging, workbench-friendly survey of German and Central European coinages from the Carolingians to Wilhelm II, with useful introductory sections on heraldry, monetary history, mint organisation, and mintmarks, then a clear run through the principal issuing authorities with practical notes on types, legends, and familiar devices. Helpful appendices cover monograms, patron saints, counterstamps, place-name equivalents, titulature translations, and denomination tables, making it especially handy when you need to identify a piece quickly or untangle a legend. Loosely inserted is Craig?s typed ?Preface to the Supplement? (circa 1955) with contemporary valuation guidance, a nice period addition. A very clean interior with bright pages, while the binding shows wear with a section working loose and the inner hinges beginning, best treated as a reference copy until re-cased. |
