Description
The Coinages of Augustus by Rev. E.A. Sydenham. Numismatic Chronicle Reprint Series. Attic Books, Ltd., 1977. Softcover, 42 pages with two plates.
While commenting on the various issues into which Augustus' coinage can be divided, Sydenham concentrates first on the important Asiatic series, the gold and silver provincial coinage, along with the bronze coinages of the Commune Asiae. He then focuses on the "imperatorial mint" which Grueber had failed to recognize.
