Mark Salton’s abstract of the second volume, written for Numismatic Literature, reads: “This corpus covers the bronze coinages of all Sicilian mints with the exception of that of Syracuse (treated in an earlier volume), as well as those of the neighboring islands. Each type is illustrated and referenced to most of the standard literature. A brief background description precedes each mint. There also is an index of legends and a bibliography.” Clain-Stefanelli 2275 and 2197.
