Light shelf wear and a few unobtrusive marks, otherwise little used and clean throughout.

Kroh p. 72 (four stars), “This five volume set is being more and more quoted all the time... Most of the coins are illustrated in the plates and the latest research is used in attribution and dating. Concordances are given to RIC, BMC and Cohen... Highly recommended for all serious collectors”. Website shipping rates do not apply. Please note that this lot will ship from our London office.
