NEW BOOK: ANATOLIAN CITIES AND THEIR COINS

A new book on Turkish coinage has been published. I've adapted the following text from the seller's web site. -Editor

Anatolian Cities and their Coins Anatolian Cities and Their Coins Through History

The book was conceived as part of a project to present an outline of the social and cultural panorama of Anatolia and Turkish Thrace throughout history. The book is made up of cities and coins, presenting a selection of the coins minted in the cities of Anatolia and Turkish Thrace from the invention of coinage through to the founding of the Republic of Turkey. In preparing this selection, the whole of this 2,600-year continuing tradition of coinage, with all its numerous turning points, has been taken into account. Coins are not and never were, simply a means of payment: through the words and images pressed into their metal; they have always been documents highly reflective of the political, social, cultural, and religious life of their period, and with this book you will have the great opportunity to read the history of Anatolia and Turkish Thrace as it is expressed on coins.
