Overview

Excerpt from Coin Types: Their Origin and Development; Being the Rhind Lectures for 1904 These lectures, delivered on the invitation of the Council of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland, were addressed to a general audience. In compliance with a wish to which strong expression was given at the conclusion of the course, they are now printed just as they were originally written. The book is thus meant primarily for the ordinary cultivated reader. In the circumstances, it would be idle to pretend that it is exhaustive. At the same time, as the first system atic attempt to marshal the main facts, it may fairly claim the attention of numismatists. It will, I believe, be found that the results are to some extent fresh. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
