The Numismatic Chronicle, and Journal of the Numismatic Society, Vol. 5


Book Description

Excerpt from The Numismatic Chronicle, and Journal of the Numismatic Society, Vol. 5: April, 1842 January, 1843 In May, 1840, some workmen were employed in Cuer-dale, near Preston in Lancashire, upon an estate of W. Assheton, Esq., of Downham Hall, in carrying earth to fill in the ground which had been washed away behind a wall formerly built to protect the banks of the river Kibble. In digging for this purpose, at a distance of about forty yards from the banks, they discovered a large mass of silver, consisting of ingots of various sizes, a few silver armlets tolerably entire, several fragments, and a few ornaments of some other description, cut into small pieces to facilitate the melting, amounting to 974 oz. 10 dwts., exclusive of about 6 or 7,000 coins of various descriptions; the whole having been inclosed in a leaden chest, which was so decomposed that only small portions of it could be secured.

The Numismatic Chronicle and Journal of the Royal Numismatic Society, 1858, Vol. 19 (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from The Numismatic Chronicle and Journal of the Royal Numismatic Society, 1858, Vol. 19 Sir, I have much pleasure in laying before the Numismatic Society this evening, copies, in gutta percha, of two very curious coins lately acquired by the British Museum; the first of which bears the name on it of the celebrated city of Nineveh. Though extremely rare, it is not actually unique - a similar coin having been described by M. Sestini. The obverse bears the bust of the Emperor Trajan with the legend Imp. Traian. Cae. Avg. Ger. The reverse, an eagle with expanded wings between military standards, and the legend Col. Avg. Feli. Nini. Clav. There is no reason to doubt that the coin must have been struck to commemorate the foundation of a Roman colony at this place by the Emperor Claudius, who founded many similar colonies in many parts of the East.

The Numismatic Chronicle and Journal of the Royal Numismatic Society, 1917, Vol. 17 (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from The Numismatic Chronicle and Journal of the Royal Numismatic Society, 1917, Vol. 17 The Sale Cataloguer remarks on the unusual style of the portrait. It is, however, very like the head selected by imhoof-blumer13 for enlargement as a specially fine portrait of Demetrius. The type, it may be observed, shows an approximation to the head of Seleucus I, I4 and is indeed nearer to that than to the ordinary head of Demetrius, which is shown, for instance, on the coin illustrated on pi. I. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.
