Dear Members, Friends and Colleagues,
In recent years, the INC committee and
its editors have sent on a regular basis
a newsletter to its members and other
interested parties. It contains news about
exhibitions,
conferences,
publications,
colleagues, jobs, supplied by members on a
regular basis. Until now, this newsletter has
been sent as an attached or downloadable
PDF file. However, as time and techonology
move on, this method of communication
feels
increasingly
old-fashioned
and
cumbersome. As current editors of the INeN,
and in consultation with the Committee as a
whole, we plan to move to a more dynamic
and immediate form of communication,
through the use of social media and by
providing links to content created by our
members on the Web. We are therefore
creating a blog for the INC, which will cover
all current news on an ongoing basis while
also archiving all this information. We will
continue to send out a quarterly newsletter
to all our members.
And, as ever, we will be delighted to receive
your news and announcements to the INC
community.
The blog will have more or less the same
categories as the current newsletter, and
our emphasis will be solely on news from
the academic and scholarly sphere of
numismatics. We will also have a special
place for free job advertisements. The
advantage of this blog will be that all news
can be posted by us as it arrives.

International Numismatic Council, Wien, Austria, May 24-25, 2016
At the invitation of its president, Michael Alram, the committee of the International Numismatic
Council held its annual meeting at the Kunsthistoriches Museum in Wien on May 24th and 25th,
2016. Among the many points on the agenda, it has been decided to create: 1) a grant in order
to help members of the INC to fund an international conference/congress with numismatic
relevance (more details to come); 2) a hashtag #INCIN; 3) an advisory board of for the XVIth International Congress of the INC (Warzaw 2021) of c. 7-10 colleagues, mainly to promote areas
or fields which are considered as under-represented at the INC Congresses so far.
At the same time, being very concerned by cultural property, the committee has also prepared
the following statement: “The INC condemns illegal excavations of numismatic objects and
theft of any kind, because it destroys valuable historical information. At the same time, it recognizes the importance of collecting by museums as well as by private collectors. It encourages
the preservation of information about coins, archaeological contexts, or hoards found before
and after 1970. It urges all its members to publish their holdings and make such information
available.”
The next meeting of he committee will be held in Warzaw, on June 26th and 27th 2017.

11. Tag der Antiken Numismatik
in Münster
am 11./12. November 2016
Am 12. November 2016 findet in Münster zum elften Mal der „Tag der Antiken Numismatik“ statt.
Eingeleitet wird der diesjährige TAN am Vorabend, dem 11. November 2016, mit einem Abendvortrag
zum Thema „Parther und Sasaniden. Ein numismatischer Überblick“ von der Londoner Kollegin
Dr. Vesta Sarkosh Curtis, Kuratorin am British Museum für vorislamische Münzen im Iran.
Tagungsort ist der Vortragssaal im LWL-Museum für Kunst und Kultur, Domplatz 10.
Veranstalter des TAN sind neben der Forschungsstelle Antike Numismatik an der Westfälischen
Wilhelms-Universität Münster das Münzkabinett am LWL-Museum für Kunst und Kultur / Westfälisches Landesmuseum sowie der Verein der Münzfreunde für Westfalen und Nachbargebiete e.V.
Wie in den Jahren zuvor soll die Veranstaltung u.a. Nachwuchswissenschaftlern eine Plattform
bieten, um ihre neuesten Forschungen und Projekte untereinander und mit Münzfreunden zu diskutieren, sowie Möglichkeiten schaffen, den Blick auf das Material zu erweitern. Ziel ist es, die an
antiken Münzen interessierten Wissenschaftler, Studierenden und Sammler zu fruchtbarem
Austausch zusammenzubringen und Kontakte zu fördern.
Wir freuen uns über Beiträge, die universitäre Abschluss- und Qualifikationsarbeiten aus dem
Bereich der Antiken Numismatik vorstellen, sowie über Präsentationen von laufenden oder auch
geplanten numismatischen Projekten. Sowohl Wortbeiträge als auch Poster-Präsentationen sind
willkommen. Ganz bewusst verzichten wir in dieser Ausschreibung auf eine thematische Fokussierung. Der Erfolg der Veranstaltung in den letzten Jahren hat gezeigt, dass das Format mit seiner
zuvor nicht planbaren Themenbreite, die die Vielfalt numismatischer Arbeit spiegelt, jedem TAN sein
neues, eigenes Profil verleiht, das die Vielzahl von Gästen anspricht und damit das intendierte
Miteinander von Wissenschaft und Öffentlichkeit fördert.
Anmeldungen von Kurzbeiträgen, Referaten oder auch Poster-Präsentationen richten Sie bitte bis
zum 28. August 2016 an [email protected] oder [email protected].
Nach Ablauf dieser Deadline werden Sie zeitnah informiert, ob Ihre Beitragsmeldung angenommen
ist.
Wir hoffen, dass wir wie in den letzten Jahren zumindest dem wissenschaftlichen Nachwuchs und
PostDocs die Reise- und Unterbringungskosten erstatten können, wenn ihnen keine eigenen
Reisemittel zur Verfügung stehen.

Ancient Numismatics at Stanford University in Spring 2016
THE FRANK L. KOVACS NUMISMATIC LIBRARY
In March 2015, benefactors presented a vast and thorough reference library on ancient coins to the Stanford University
Libraries. Donors included Frank Kovacs, a leading Bay Area professional numismatist who assembled and consulted
the library throughout his career; Renee Kovacs, a scholar who advises the Cuneiform Digital Library Initiative at UCLA
and other institutions; John Jencek, professional numismatist whose office in San Mateo housed the library until his
recent move to Prague, Czech Republic; Mary Lannin, president of the San Francisco Ancient Numismatic Society
and chair of the Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee in Washington, D.C.; Richard Beleson, Stanford alumnus and
member of the Board of Trustees of the American Numismatic Society; and Lawrence Schwimmer, likewise Stanford
alumnus and American Numismatic Society board member.
In all likelihood, the Kovacs Library is the largest and most complete reference library on ancient numismatics situated
on the West coast of the U.S. As its processing nears completion, it comprises more than 2700 catalog records and
occupies 325 linear feet of shelving in a room named for one of Stanford’s most beloved and respected professors, the
late historian Antony E. Raubitschek, in Cecil H. Green Library.

DR. BERNHARD WOYTEK, SCHOLAR IN RESIDENCE
Privatdozent Dr. Bernhard Woytek, head of the division Documenta Antiqua (a research center for numismatics, epigraphy and papyrology) at the Institute for the Study of Ancient Culture at the Austrian Academy of Sciences, delivered
the keynote lecture at the opening celebration of the Kovacs Library on 11 May 2016. In “Numismatics and the Mind of
Man: The Study of Ancient Coins from the Renaissance to the 21st Century,” splendidly illustrated by both coins and
early printed books, he summarized various perspectives on numismatic collecting and research from the fourteenth-century (Petrarch’s views, for example) to the present, including the most modern technologies.
In residence at Stanford throughout Spring quarter as visiting associate professor of Classics, Dr. Woytek, who specializes in the study of ancient numismatics, the financial history of the ancient world, and the history of classical
scholarship, offered a course on Describing and Identifying Ancient Coins and a graduate proseminar on Ancient
Numismatics. “In numismatics, as in all other disciplines dealing with documentary sources of the ancient world (like
epigraphy and papyrology), it is essential to work hands-on with the primary material,” Dr Woytek said.
Topics in the graduate seminar included numismatic terminology; techniques of coin production in antiquity; numismatic methodology (die studies; hoard studies; metrological analyses); quantifying coin production and ancient financial
history; and coins versus other forms of money in antiquity. A guest appearance was made by Peter van Alfen, Margaret Thompson Associate Curator of Greek Coins at the American Numismatic Society, New York, who discussed
the origins of coinage in the ancient world. Students were very appreciative: Peter Shi, a PhD candidate in Ancient
History, said, “This quarter’s numismatics courses have been rewarding beyond what the titles promised. Using coins
as a nexus, Dr. Woytek explores various aspects of the ancient world and displays the subtle connections between art
history, politics, economics, and social history. His class not only introduced basic numismatic skills, but also enlightened me about the usage of numismatic evidence in historical research.»

American Numiismatic Society
New York, NY
June 15, 2016
Dr. Michael Alram Received the
Archer M. Huntington Award
for Excellence in Numismatic
Scholarship from the American
Numismatic Society
On June 7, 2016, the American Numismatic Society
(ANS) honored Dr. Michael Alram with the 2016 Archer
M. Huntington Award in recognition of his outstanding
career contributions to numismatic scholarship. Dr.
Alram is a distinguished scholar, scientist, researcher
and teacher who has been a formidable presence in
the numismatic community for the past four decades.
Remarkably for such a scholar—and most fittingly for
the mission of the American Numismatic Society—
he is a rare example of a researcher who has strived
throughout his career to bring the study and love
of numismatics to a wider audience. He is also an
exemplary model of administrative accomplishments,
serving in leadership capacities at the Coin Cabinet of
the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, the Austrian
Academy of Sciences, the International Committee of
Money and Banking Museums and the International
Numismatic Council, where he currently serves as
President.
Dr. Michael Alram receiving the Archer M. Huntington
Award from Dr. Ute Wartenberg Kagan, Executive
Director of the ANS
The award ceremony, held at the ANS headquarters
in Manhattan, included the presentation of Dr. Alram’s
Silvia Mani Hurter Memorial Lecture entitled, “Money
and Power in Ancient Bactria.”
Dr. Ute Wartenberg Kagan, Executive Director of the
ANS, noted the historical significance of this year’s
choice of honoree: Dr. Alram is the 95th recipient of
the Huntington Award, yet only the third Austrian to
receive it, and the first since World War II.
In making the selection, Prof. Jere Bacharach, Chair
of the Huntington Committee, wrote: “Dr. Alram has
spent his entire career invested in and devoted to the
field of numismatics. His academic credentials, from
his numerous awards to his teaching positions to the
variety of leadership roles, made him an obvious choice
for this prestigious award. All of us in the numismatic
community are indebted to him for his lifelong work
and contributions to our field of study.”
The Archer M. Huntington Award, first presented to
Edward T. Newell in 1918, is conferred annually in honor
of the late Archer M. Huntington, ANS President from
1905 to 1910 and a major benefactor, in recognition
of outstanding career contributions to numismatic
scholarship. The medal was designed in 1908 by Emil
Fuchs to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the
founding of the American Numismatic Society.

Money Matters
3 June – 9 October 2016
Room 69a
Supported by Citi
Monetary terminology is all around us; from inflation to debt, globalisation to taxation, assets to budgets. Are these contemporary concepts though? What do they actually mean? How do they relate
to people’s personal relationships with money? Money Matters, supported by Citi, is a new thematic
display exploring monetary terminology and the functions of modern finance. It encourages visitors
to explore not only the world of money and its history but also their relationship with it. Using objects drawn from thousands of years of monetary history, and displays developed with students, undergraduates and community groups, the exhibition illustrates important micro and macroeconomic
concepts and how they have affected and continue to affect our lives. http://www.britishmuseum.org/whats_on/exhibitions/money_matters.aspx

Press Release:
Money Matters
3 June – 9 October 2016
Room 69a
Supported by Citi
For millennia money has been a constant in human society. It is a persistent thread that entwines with politics, faith
and warfare to allow us a window into past societies.
This free display at the British Museum will explore the world of money, and individual everyday relationships with it,
through a selection of objects drawn from over two thousand years of history. It will investigate several key financial
concepts, including taxation, globalisation, inflation, assets, banking and debt.
The Museum’s rich and varied collection discusses the functions of economies and their impact on society. The display includes objects thousands of years apart that speak to one another, for example a Roman papyri referencing the
repayment of a loan with a modern letter from a debt collecting agency threatening repossession.
The role of taxation is also addressed, focusing on its position in shaping society. While some taxes are broad, others
are far more focussed. In the late 1600s, in an attempt to modernise Russian society and discourage the growing of
facial hair, Peter the Great introduced a beard tax. Those who wished to grow a beard were taxed and given a token
as proof of payment.
Elements of the display have been developed with students from George Mitchell School, Kemnal Technology College,
The Children’s Hospital School at Great Ormond Street and University College Hospital and young people from New
Horizon Youth Centre, and address some areas of the citizenship, PSHE and business studies curricula.
The display also includes a specially commissioned piece by artist Olga Bagaeva, from Central St Martins, University
of the Arts London. Her work looks at the intangibility of money by exploring the financial world through a series of
unseen connection

Pushkin Museum, Benaki Museum & KIKPE Numismatic Collection
Heads and Tails – Tales and Bodies:
Engraving the Human Figure from Antiquity to the Early Modern Period
July 5 – October 30, 2016
Gallery 24, Pushkin Museum, Moscow
More and more coins can clearly constitute the core of thematic exhibitions, despite
their small size and some difficulties due mainly to the public’s unfamiliarity with them.
The combination of coins with other artefacts in a symbolic dialogue has much to say
to a wide audience.
The exhibition Heads and Tails – Tales and Bodies: Engraving the Human Figure from
Antiquity to the Early Modern Period falls within this scope. It focuses on the representation of the human figure on coins and other small coin-shaped artefacts through
the ages, from Greek Antiquity to the Early Modern Period. In addition to pieces from
the collections of the Pushkin Museum, it includes coins from the Benaki Museum in
Athens, as well as from the KIKPE Numismatic Collection, which is kept on loan in the
Benaki Museum. With images that usually reflect the trends and achievements of largescale sculpture, the surfaces of coins, gemstones, medals and the like, have proved to be an extraordinary challenge
for engravers and some truly remarkable artworks bear witness to the ways in which the difficulties in rendering (Gr.
kallos en smikrō for ‘beauty in small-scale’) can be overcome.
One of the main units of the exhibition focuses on anthropomorphism in relation to divinity, a concept that is exemplified quintessentially by the Greek spirit. Numerous representations are assembled, covering both the Greek and
the Roman pantheon, as well as the emergence of Christian imagery. Next
comes the visualization of mortals, which displays considerable diversity,
especially with regard to persons in power: ancient kings, queens, satraps,
Roman and Byzantine emperors, Medieval rulers, Early Modern monarchs
and tsars, but also heroes, colonists, eminent personages, and so on. Other
aspects of anthropomorphism include transfigurations and personifications
(river gods, fountain nymphs, cities, institutions, concepts, virtues, etc). A
special section is devoted to certain artistic trends that can be traced on
coins and similar artefacts (such as Idealism and Realism), spotlighting certain traits, such as details of the human body or engravers’ signatures. Last
but not least, examined is the dissemination of the anthropomorphic tradition in a broader geographical context, based on coin imitations of various
peoples (e.g. Scythians, Indo-Scythians, Arabs, Turkomans, etc), Medieval
and Renaissance revivals, as well as Early Modern influences and echoes.
The exhibition also takes into account the fact that the gallery which hosts it is surrounded by plaster casts of ancient
Greek statues, as part of the educational character of the Pushkin Museum. Furthermore, the exhibition encompasses
other media in which the human body is reproduced, such as statuettes, painted vases, icons, selected from the Pushkin Museum and the Benaki Museum, and employed as it were as ‘frontispieces’.
Coins and other coin-shaped items and miniature masterpieces are the actual
‘milestones’ of the exhibition. Consequently, the exhibits, through the correlation
of cultural and aesthetic affinity, offer visitors a vibrant and innovative view of artistic trends of various eras. Moreover, intriguing links between iconography and
an array of fields, such as mythology, religion, history, literature, philosophy, are
showcased. The concept of this exhibition was proposed by Professor Vasiliki
Penna and was realized with the collaboration of Dr Sergei Kovalenko of the Coins
& Medals Department of the Pushkin Museum and Yannis Stoyas of the KIKPE
Numismatic Collection.
This event is incorporated in the festivities of the the year 2016 as ‘Year of Greece’
in Russia.
The joint exhibition will be accompanied by a brief catalogue in Russian and by a
more comprehensive catalogue in English.

Das erst 2011 durch eine Auktion international bekannt
gewordene Konvolut löste ein Mysterium der modernen
chinesischen Münzgeschichte, konnte doch damit die
Herkunft seltenster Probegepräge aufgeklärt werden.
Dank der Vermittlung des Hauses Künker können die
seltenen Münzwerkzeuge nun öffentlich prä- sentiert
werden. Sie demonstrieren den Aufbruch Chinas in die
Moderne und sind zugleich Zeugnisse der deutschen
Industriegeschichte.

The book is a publication of official letters sent to the mint
master in Kongsberg, Norway 1781-1786. The letters are
in Danish/Norwegian and preserved in the Norwegian National Archives. Most of them are from the mint director/
financial administration in Copenhagen. The distant mint
in Kongsberg was like the one in Altona (present Germany) in several ways micromanaged from Copenhagen.
The letters provide insight into monetary policy and many
different aspects related to the administration, organization, and technology of the Danish-Norwegian mints.

Ein spätkeltischer Münzschatz aus Oberfranken. Abhandlungen und Bestandskataloge der Archäologischen Staatssammlung München 2
(München 2016)
ISBN 978-3-927806-42-9
104 S., Großformat, Hardcover, Fadenheftung. € 19,80
Mit 443Münzen gehört der keltische Münzschatz von Neuses in Oberfranken zu den bedeutendsten geldgeschichtlichen Zeugnissen in Süddeutschland. Ungewöhnlich ist vor allem seine Zusammensetzung, da es sich um einen
Mischfund handelt, der sich aus vier goldenen Regenbogenschüsselchen, mehreren Hundert Büschelquinaren
mit
den
unterschiedlichsten
Beizeichen und einigen Dutzend
Kleinsilbermünzen
zusammensetzt. Der Fundplatz liegt wenige
Kilometer südlich einer noch kaum
erforschten spätlatènezeitlichen
Siedlung und etwa 130 Kilometer
nördlich des großen keltischen Oppidums von Manching. Der Schatz
wurde 1976 beim Anlegen eines
Spargelbeetes entdeckt und lag in
einem bemalten Keramikgefäß aus
der Mittellatènezeit.
Der Autor befasst sich zunächst mit
der frühen Forschung zur keltischen
Numismatik in Süddeutschland,
diskutiert anschließend die verschiedenen Herstellungstechniken
dieser Münzen, führt eine stempelkritische und metrologische
Untersuchung an allen Münzen
des Schatzes durch und stellt
Überlegungen zu den in Frage
kommenden Prägestätten an. Der
Fund datiert in die 1. Hälfte des 1.
Jahrhunderts v. Chr. und gewährt
überraschende Einblicke in die
Stempelkoppelungspraktiken und
den Verschleiß von Münzstempeln
durch das Vorhandensein vieler
stempelgleicher oder stempelähnlicher Stücke.
Der Schatz ist ein bedeutendes
Zeugnis für die keltische Siedlungs- und Wirtschaftsgeschichte
und zeigt, dass Silbermünzen
nicht nur das Geld für den Handel
und den Erwerb von Waren des
täglichen Bedarfs waren, sondern auch für überregionale, größere Finanztransaktionen Verwendung fanden.
Bei der Veröffentlichung handelt es sich um die überarbeitete und auf den neuesten Stand gebrachte Habilitationsschrift des Autors.

DROBETA. The never abandoned city of Roman Dacia.

‘The detailed examination of inventory records as well as each coin envelope has allowed us to establish that, at the moment, 1,886 coins of the Roman period came from the area of the ancient site of Drobeta, Roman Dacia
(nowadays, Romania) - the Roman town where Trajan’s bridge over the Danube was built). Following the reanalysis of the coins together with the use of
the newest catalogues has brought us to a correct identification and a more
accurate dating of many of the coins published previously. Furthermore, we
were able to separate the majority of these coins by their main findspot: the
auxiliary fort; the town’s area; the baths; the amphitheatre; the necropoleis
(eastern, western, and northern); the Severin Chester. At the same time, the
present catalogue also includes those coins that entered the museum collection following various donations, which suggests that the coins were found
on the area of the ancient Drobeta.
The main conclusion of this book is that the numismatic evidence indicates
that this city was not abandoned by the Roman authorities towards the end
of the 3rd century AD like the resof the province of Dacia, but continued its
existence long time up into the Middle Age At the same time, this book marks the end of the series of the numismatic monographs of the Roman sites in Romania as all the sites that produced a large quantity of numismatic evidence have been published in this series.’

The Bistrita hoard. A Roman republican hoard?

‘The Bistrita hoard (pre-Roman Dacia, North Transylvania, Romania)
consists of 64 silver coins: 12 genuine republican denarii, 3 unidentifiable fragments of republican denarii and 49 hubbed/mechanically
reproduced republican denarii (including 1 ‘barbarous’ imitation).
The intriguing aspect comes from the quantity of hubbed coins. Can
these coins be considered as forgeries?
At first sight, one could answer affirmative, as most of the coins from
this hoard were not minted in an official mint that created the genuine
prototype, and it is assumed that their purpose was to defraud and
make profit illegally. However, if these pieces were coined by the Dacians, with the agreement of their authorities and use as local currency then for these people these coins passed as genuine as the ones
minted in Rome.’

Irritamenta: Numismatic Treasures of a Renaissance Collector (Numismatic Studies 31)
by John Cunnally
American Numismatic Society (2016)
List price: $200 plus shipping & handling
Member price: $140 plus shipping & handling
ISSN 0517-404-x
ISBN 978-0-89722-342-3
Hardcover, slipcased 2-vol. set, 414 text pages with b/w figures, 330 color plates
Handsomely bound in red leather,
MS Typ 411 is one of thousands
of rare editions, manuscripts,
and documents in the Houghton
Library’s Printing and Graphic
Arts section at Harvard University. Resembling an old fashioned
family Bible at 10 × 8 inches and
some 300 pages, when opened
this book reveals no text but a series of fine pen-and-ink drawings,
1,220 illustrations of ancient
coins. These are the records of a
coin collection owned by Andrea
Loredan, a Venetian patrician well
known in the 1550s and ‘60s as
a passionate connoisseur of antiquities. Silver tetradrachms of
Athens and Alexander the Great,
aurei of Philip and Augustus, denarii of Caesar and his assassins,
large Imperial sestertii of Nero and
Hadrian, the numismatic images
were intended to delight the eye,
stir the curiosity, and enflame
the acquisitive instincts of prospective buyers, at a time when
the cash-strapped patrician was
seeking to liquidate the ancient
treasures of his private museum.
The volume was, in essence, a sales catalogue, a species of book not often sought out and admired for artistic or
literary merit. Yet Loredan and his unknown draftsman, unaware of how they were benefiting future scholars, produced
a graphic masterpiece of elegance and charm, a document of the highest importance for the study of Renaissance
antiquarianism, humanism, and archaeology.
The author first encountered MS Typ 411 while working on his survey of Renaissance numismatic literature, Images
of the Illustrious: the manuscript is mentioned in a footnote by Ruth Mortimer in one of her catalogues of 16th century
printed books at the Harvard Library. The drawings at that time were attributed to the Mantuan goldsmith and antiquary Jacopo Strada (ca. 1515–1588), one of the numismatic authors in whose career I was interested, and a prolific
producer of albums depicting ancient coins. Cunnally’s initial reaction on first examining MS Typ 411 in person was to
doubt not only the attribution to Strada, but the 16th century date itself. Surely these careful drawings, so attentive to
nuances of inscription and detail such as mint-marks and magistrates’ initials, were the product of a much later, more
sophisticated period of numismatic research, no earlier than the time of Eckhel and Mionnet in the late 18th or early
19th century. Particularly modern was the draftsman’s practice of varying the size of the coin drawings to replicate the
actual dimensions of the pieces, which vary from tiny fractional silver to large bronze medallions. The usual routine in
16th century numismatic books was to show the coins as uniform in size, sometimes accompanied by a Greek letter
keyed to a scale of concentric or nested circles printed at the front or back of the book. But the physical evidence of
the watermarks and binding, as well as contemporary documents reporting the contents of Loredan’s collection and
his creation of an album of drawings to help him sell it, quickly dispelled any skepticism, and we can safely assign the
origin of the manuscript to Venice, and its date to around 1560.

With this date and locale established, the significance of MS Typ 411 for students of Renaissance antiquarianism cannot be overstated. While written descriptions and even partial catalogues of some Renaissance coin collections have
come down to us—for example, the Greek and Roman silver of Cardinal Pietro Barbo, the future Pope Paul II, inventoried in 1457, and the 800 gold coins owned by Duke Ercole II of Ferrara, recorded by his courtier Celio Calcagnini
around 1540—the Houghton manuscript is unique in offering an album of pictures of a complete Renaissance collection. And whereas the written catalogues are often informative enough to allow us to identify the type of coin described
in the text, in the Loredan manuscript the abundance of detail permits a modern numismatist to pinpoint an item more
precisely to a particular issue, and sometimes to a particular die, based on subsidiary symbols and variations of the
portrait that are overlooked in written descriptions. In a few cases, such as that of Loredan’s tetradrachm of the First
Region of Macedon bearing monograms of two magistrates, or a bronze of Bostra showing the head of Elagabalus,
the unique markings or surviving letters displayed in the drawing can be matched with a high degree of probability to
only a single coin existing in a modern collection. The importance of this information for numismatists interested in the
provenance of the objects they study, and intrigued by evidence of rare coins known to earlier collectors but no longer
extant, is obvious.
For art historians such as Cunnally who specialize in tracing the survival and revival of antiquity during the Renaissance,
continually asking the “Watergate” questions—what did they know and when did they know it?—the Loredan manuscript is a precious witness to the abundance and variety of ancient numismatic material available to the artists, as well
as their patrons and public, during that period. Art historians searching for the antique sources available to Titian, Palladio, Sansovino, and other Venetian masters of the Cinquecento should find the drawings of MS Typ 411 particularly
interesting.
John Cunnally is an associate professor of Art and Visual Culture specializing in Renaissance art history at Iowa State
University.
Expected to ship in August 2016.

Obiturary
Marion Archibald (1936–2016)
Marion McCullum Archibald died on 23 April 2016 at the
Michael Cowell of Metallurgy in Numismatics 3 (RNS
Special Publication 23, 1996). Other major publications
included a volume in the Sylloge of Coins of the British
Isles, covering the British Museum’s collection of AngloSaxon coins from Athelstan to Edgar (with C.E. Blunt,
1986) and a volume of Cross-Crosslets, Short Cross
and Long Cross hoards (with B.J. Cook, 1998). Marion’s
bibliography to 2005, together with a short appreciation
of her achievements, appeared in a festschrift produced
for her 70th birthday, Coinage And History in the North
Sea World, c. AD 500-1250: Essays in Honour of Marion
Archibald (Leiden, 2006), edited by B.J. Cook and G.
Williams. At the time of her death she was working on a
volume of Anglo-Saxon and early Norman coin hoards,
which, along with other projects, will be completed in her
name by colleagues.
Marion was actively involved in the wider world of
numismatics. She was an active supporter of the British
Association of Numismatic Societies, and took particular
pleasure in serving as their president (1986-91). She also
served repeatedly as council member and officer of both
the Royal Numismatic Society and the British Numismatic
Society, and her services were recognised in her election
as an Honorary Fellow of both Societies. Marion’s wider
contributions to the subject were also honoured by the
Sanford Saltus Medal of the British Numismatic Society
(1980), the Jeton de Vermeil of the French Numismatic
Society (1988) and the Medal of Royal Numismatic
Society in 2011.
Gareth Williams
age of 80, after a short illness. As a woman, she was
something of a pioneer in the traditionally male world
of numismatics, and the first woman to be appointed
as Assistant Keeper in the Department of Coins and
Medals at the British Museum in 1965. In that role, her
name became synonymous with the study of medieval
coins, and particularly with the coins of Anglo-Saxon and
Norman England. Apart from the coins themselves she
had an abiding interest in associated paranumismatica,
including coin-weights, trial-pieces and other lead
strikings, and especially coin-jewellery of all periods.
This last formed the subject of an exhibition which she
curated immediately before her retirement from the
British Museum in 1997, although she remained active in
research and publication until her death.
Marion had been involved in a number of major exhibitions
on the early medieval period, and her contributions to
the catalogues contain many thoughtful insights into the
coinage. She also published prolifically on a wide variety
of subjects, including hoards, excavation coins and single
finds. In this last area she was one of the pioneers of
systematically recording single finds, an approach which
has revolutionised the understanding of monetary history
in ancient and medieval Britain over the last forty years.
She also encouraged the application of scientific analysis
to numismatics, reflected in her publication with colleague
