Georges Depeyrot submitted this announcement of a liquidation sale of the first fifty volumes of the Moneta Collection of monographs on numismatics and monetary economics.
-Editor
Thirty years ago, I created the "Moneta Collection" (www.moneta.be).
At that time, it was obvious that the coming years would be difficult for numismatics,
monetary economics and history. Already, credits, positions and resources were beginning to
diminish. At the same time, archaeological remains were increasingly looted and coin
catalogues remained rare compared to the number of archaeological sites.
It was necessary to find a place to publish without constraints, only according to
scientific needs, with the necessary number of pages and plates. Making basic documentation,
inventories, photos, new classifications and new studies accessible, that was the goal of the
"Moneta Collection": what was published became available to everyone.
The "Moneta Collection" therefore initiated or encouraged publications in many
countries. It also served as a support for the conferences organized since the 2010s throughout
the world, from Osaka to San Francisco via the main European capitals. These were places of
meetings, debates and openness that the proceedings perfectly reflect.
This adventure would not have been possible without the help and collaboration of the
late René and Georgette De Meester as well as Jan and Monique De Meester who, for 30
years, supported this project within the Cultura printing house in Wetteren (Belgium).
The "Moneta Collection" is 210 volumes, from 88 to 1,012 pages, a total of 60,933
printed pages.
A new storage organization obliges us to put an end to the sale of volumes 1 to 50. We
offer the possibility of acquiring these last volumes with a discount of 50% (+ a flat rate of 15
euros for shipping).
After 31 January 2025, these works will no longer be available. Orders should be sent
by mail to
info@moneta.be.
