This is an excellent book for new collectors and people with a general interest in this area. It covers both Greek and Roman Coins and it is great value at just $14.95 (plus shipping) as coin books are usually quite expensive.
The Handbook of Ancient Greek and Roman Coins combines the two main references that collectors have depended on for nearly forty years in the study of ancient Greek and Roman coins.
The book touches upon every aspect of ancient coinage, from how the pieces were made to what their symbolism meant to the people who used them.
It contains the information needed to properly identify and attribute coins to that era. Beginning and advanced collectors alike will benefit from data, charts, and more than 1000 full-size photographs that depict the actual coins and show how to interpret dates and inscriptions.

--Reading Greek and Roman coin inscriptions
--Identifying emperors and dates on Roman coins
--Symbols, city names, and historical and mythological characters
