1880. The want of a general chronological view of the coinage of
the ancients has long been felt by all who have devoted any study
to this branch of archeology. It is this want which Mr. Head has
here made a first attempt to supply. In the choice and
classification of the coins described in the following pages, Mr.
Head has throughout endeavored to keep simultaneously in view the
historic, artistic, and strictly numismatic interest of the coins
selected. Thus he found it possible to present the spectator a
tolerably complete representative series of the gold and silver
money current throughout the ancient world in approximate
chronological order. Illustrated.
