A master catalogue of Greek coins from Asia Minor and the Black Sea coasts. Essential for coin enthusiasts everywhere.L. Forrer’s The Weber Collection (Volume III - Part I) assembles the coinage of the Asia Bosporus and its neighbouring regions - Colchis, Pontus, Paphlagonia, Bithynia, Mysia, Troas, Aeolis, Lesbos, Caria and Lydia. Functioning as both an ancient coin reference and a rigorous Greek coin catalogue, it serves as a practical numismatic collection guide and a collector’s reference book for anyone confronting the material culture of classical antiquity coins. The entries and systematic headings support historical coin identification across Hellenistic era coins and local issues, placing Asia Minor coinage in the wider sweep of Black Sea region history. Useful to curators, dealers and private collectors alike, the volume aids provenance work and comparative study, and it reveals how iconography and mint practice illuminate political allegiance and economic exchange. It sits naturally among Forrer’s numismatic works, offering both the specialist the precision required for scholarship and the casual reader an approachable map of the ancient monetary world.Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today’s and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector’s item and a cultural treasure. Its historical significance is clear: Forrer’s methodical catalogue recorded local types and provenance data at a moment when many regional issues were last described, so the work remains essential to numismatists, historians and ancient coin collectors researching iconography, circulation and chronology. Equally accessible to casual readers fascinated by classical antiquity and to classic-literature collectors seeking a heritage title, this carefully edited edition bridges discipline and delight, and serves as a durable museum research resource and a practical tool for private libraries and institutional collections alike. Clear organisation helps new collectors and scholars locate relevant types quickly.
