Originally published in 1950, this book provides an account of the
relationship between important 'anniversary years' and the creation
of Roman Imperial coins and medallions. The anniversaries are
connected to occurrences such as 'the births and deaths of Augustus
and other leading persons; the various events that contributed to
the inauguration of the imperial regime (Actium, the 'restoration
of the republic', etc); and the foundation or dedication of temples
and altars'. The text was written by the renowned British
classicist and numismatist Michael Grant (1914-2004). Numerous
illustrative figures are included and detailed notes are
incorporated throughout. This book will be of value to anyone with
an interest in numismatics and Roman history.
