We recently discussed a numismatic book translation by
Dane Kurth, administrator of the online auction archive service Wildwinds.com - Lisa Weidauer's 1975 book Probleme der frühen Elektronprägung (Problems in Early Electrum Coinage).
At my request Dane forwarded an image of the cover of the original book,
and she added a note about some additional translations she's made available.
Great work - thanks!

2) Maerkl: The Coinage of Claudius II (original was German, 1894) Includes some images e.g. from wildwinds. A truly great and extremely interesting work. Some varieties added to the listings.
