Author Antonio Roma writes:
I am a collector and also PhD in Numismatics from Spain. I have published several books and articles, the last one one on the
numismatic books written in Spanish and Portuguese since XV c.
Even though the book is written in Spanish, I am sure English speakers can understand well. The book contains an analysis and an index
of all books, many of them unknown in the Dekesel references.
Thank you! Here is an excerpt from a machine translation of the book's summary. -Editor
This book studies the numismatic orders and production, authors and scholars who have collected coins and medals, who have improved their
production. With reference to the conditions that have determined the ownership and transfer of cultural property and cultural ideas that have marked
trends in the collection and study chronologically expose the protagonists of numismatics in Spain, Portugal and Latin America since the end of s XV
to almost today. In the case of the authors, with expression and comment on their books and manuscripts. It is a return to classical ideas from the
Renaissance to the present, full of surprises.
In addition to numismatic literature, the book discusses numismatists and collecting. Below are some images to give a flavor of the
subject matter. I encourage E-Sylum readers to have a look. Would anyone care to write a review? -Editor
