The catalogue, edited by Alfred R. Bellinger and Philip Grierson, publishes the majority of these coins, dating between 491 and 1453, in five volumes. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe third volume in this catalogue is in two parts. Part I examines Leo III to Michael III (717-867) and Part II covers the period between Basil I and Nicephorus III (867-1081). Continuing the practice established in volume two, an extensive general introduction treats the historical background, the monetary system, mints and mint activity, and types and inscriptions, while the introduction to each reign covers chronology, main features of the coinage, and types issued by mint.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Philip Grierson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0884020452\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780884020455\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dumbarton Oaks Research Library \u0026amp; Collection\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/1973\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 982\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.83lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.78h x 8.84w x 3.51d","brand":"Philip Grierson","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44072869101823,"sku":"9780884020455","price":215.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ab58d85e-3f90-4fa6-8eef-56a61cd7b031.jpg?v=1685444415","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/catalogue-of-the-byzantine-coins-philip-grierson-9780884020455","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
