description: It is sometimes difficult to understand why there are not more collectors of Roman coins. It is apparent that most people are fascinated by them. I have many times seen this fascination in the eyes of my own friends and acquaintances so many of whom have no interest in either numismatics or the history of Rome. Both the size and title of this book should immediately make manifest to all concerned that it has been written with the thought of serving as an introduction only to the vast study of the coins of the Roman Empire. Quite simply if the reader is interested in beginning a collection of Roman coins this book might prove to be of some assistance.
