BALDWIN'S OFFER NUMISMATIC LITERATURE

Baldwin's have added some more new books to their online numismatic literature list. Here are a couple that caught my eye. -Editor

The History & Coinage of the Parthians
The History and Coinage of the Parthians Lindsay, J. A View of the History and Coinage of the Parthians with Descriptive catalogues and Tables, Illustrated with a Complete Set of Engravings of Coins, a Large number of them Unpublished. Cork, 1852. Quarto, pp. vii, 250, (2), 12 colour washed engraved plates. First free endpaper heavily creased but with a presentation inscription from the author to James Cove Jones dated June 7th 1853. Bound in olive boards and tanned linen spine. Worn and rubbed, backstrip chipped with the front board detached. Contents heavily foxed.

Le Tessere Erotiche Romane
Le Tessere Erotiche Romane Simonetta, B. & Riva, R. Le Tessere Erotiche Romane (Spintrae). Lugano, 1981. Small quarto, pp. 44, 7 b/w plates. Text in Italian but with summaries in French, German and English. Casebound. Rarely seen. Inscription on title page, slight damp staining to endpapers else fine.

We've discussed this book before - see the earlier article. While dubbed "brothel tokens" in the past, that may not be what their erotic scenes depict. Interesting nonetheless. -Editor
