Like other volumes in this series, Ancient History from Coins demystifies a specialism, introducing students (from first year upwards) to the techniques, methods, problems and advantages of using coins to do ancient history. Coins are a fertile source of information for the ancient historian; yet too often historians are uneasy about using them as evidence because of the special problems attaching to their interpretation. The world of numismatics is not always easy for the non-specialist to penetrate or understand with confidence. Dr Howgego describes and anlyses the main contributions the study of coins can make to ancient history, showing shows through numerous examples how the character, patterns and behaviour of coinage bear on major historical themes. Topics range from state finance and economic policy to imperial domination and political propaganda through coins types. The period covered by the book is from the invention of coinage (ca 600BC) to AD 400.

Excerpt from A History of Ancient Coinage: 700-300 B. C In the course of the last fifty years the science of Greek coins, ancient numismatics, has undergone great developments. Up to about 1860 the study had been gradually taking shape, and many able scholars and numismatists, such as Sestini, Eckhel, and later Millingen and others, had opened up great fields of study, and showed much penetration and erudition in the discussion of the various classes of coins and their relations to the cities which issued them. Yet these writers had scarcely founded a science of ancient numismatics. Methods had still to be sought out and established. The pioneers of numismatic method were Mommsen, in the opening chapters of his Geschichte des romischen Munzwesens (1865), and Brandis, in his Munz-, Mass- und Gewichtswesen in Vorderasien (1866). These writers clearly saw that for the formation of numismatics as a branch of historical science two points were fundamental. First, it was necessary to determine not only the cities which struck each group of coins, but also the date and occasion of each issue. And secondly, as coins were measures of value and a medium of exchange, the one most important fact in regard to them was the quantity of precious metal which each contained; in fact their weight. Eckhel in his great Doctrina Numorum Veterum (1792-8), which is still valuable as a storehouse of learning and a model of good sense, had but a very vague notion of the dates of coins; and their weights had not been seriously considered. The works of Brandis and Mommsen were epoch-making; but they could not carry very far, because the essential point of the dates of issues had not been satisfactorily gone into.

Excerpt from The Coinages of the World: Ancient and Modern A word may be said here about cleaning coins. A young collector will often spoil a fine coin by handling it improplerly. Silver coins should never be touched with any kind of acid. Soap and warm water, wit a soft brush, will remove all that should be removed from them. Copper coins should have only soap and water applied to them. When the grease and dirt are removed, polish ntly with powdered soapstone on annel. Never use ammonia or acid. Brass coins can be c eaned b using a mixture of one part of lprepared chalk with two of spirits of hartshorne. Mix t ese well in a bottle, and apply w h annel or a tooth brush, washing the mixture off with water and polishing with annel.
