From the Collection of a Connoisseur.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art auctions in the early 1970s are credited with greatly popularizing the collecting of ancient coins in the United States, likewise the Hunt Collection sales in the early 1990s. The catalogs are well-researched and include some of the most noteworthy ancient coins to have sold in the last half-century.
