[BMC Greek] Poole, Reginald Stuart, et al. A Catalogue of the Greek Coins in the British Museum. (Bologna, Undated Forni reprint eds). 30 vols. complete (Caria volume in two parts) with plates of coins illustrated, with introduction, concordance, and indices. Hardbound in matching light blue covers with gilt lettering. The Forni reprint of one of the world’s most important public collections of Greek coins, covering almost the entire Greek world (excepting the Indo-Greeks). Highly important for all of the detailed supplementary numismatic and historical material contained. Essential for the Greek numismatist and collector. Some insignificant shelf wear and the occasional light corner bump, but a set showing little actual use and overall a very fine set or better.
