Notes: "The 18 articles mainly deal with Byzantine and Early Islamic coinage in Syria and Palestine, but there are two articles on weights, one on lead seals and one historical essay. Well over 200 coins are illustrated, most of them for the first time. The definitive study of the Jerash mint will certainly be the fundamental reference for the foreseeable future and three other Arab-Byzantine mints are published here for the first time."--Spink, London website, https://spinkbooks.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=416 (accessed November 15, 2017).
