Harlan Michael - Roman Republican Moneyers and Their Coins 81 BCE-64 BCE, Citrus Heights 2012, ISBN 9780965456708

A 222-page B5 format, softcover, coin-illustrated study of the minting of the Roman Republic from the period 81-64 BCE, includes a detailed description (along with images of the coins) of the activities of the 34 coinmakers of the time, with attention paid to what symbols, images and inscriptions they used so as to convey a particular message in a quick and simple way - often as part of "self-promotion" - to the citizens of the Republic. Their social context and how they influenced history are also presented. A useful item for coin collectors of the Roman Republic.
