Strack, Paul L. Untersuchungen zur römischen Reichsprägung des zweiten Jahrhunderts. (Stuttgart, 1931-1937). Part I: Die Reichsprägung zur Zeit des Trajan. xi, 308 pages including fold-out synoptic charts, 10 photographic plates // Part II: Die Reichsprägung zur Zeit des Hadrian. vii, 250 pages plus fold-out synoptic charts, 20 photographic plates // Part III: Die Reichsprägung zur Zeit des Antoninus Pius. x, 383 pages including fold-out synoptic charts, 21 photographic plates. Text in German. A meticulous study of the coinage of the second century AD. Part I is the original edition, with gray printed card covers. Parts II and III are early xerographic copies; the plates to Part III were carelessly copied, resulting in part of the images being cut off. Still an important and basic reference. Fine condition, both the original volume and the copies being somewhat tattered. Three volumes in lot.
