Wiczay, M. & F. Caronni. Musei Hedervarii in Hungaria numos antiquos graecos et latinos descripsit. (Vienna, 1814)
Comments by Curtis Clay:
One of the most important private collections of ancient coins of c. 1790-1825, owned by Count Wiczay of Hungary. Published in two volumes by Carroni in 1814. Cohen quite frequently quotes this catalogue in his catalogue of Roman imperial coins. The Greek coins of the collection were also published by Sestini, and Sestini's manuscript catalogue of Wiczay's Roman coins (he died before he could publish it) is in the Bibliothèque Nationale in Paris. See Babelon's History of Numismatics, col. 195 with notes 1-2.
One important note about Carroni's catalogue: he uses heraldic directions rather than the traditional numismatic ones, so when e.g. he says "portrait left" he really means "portrait right"!
After Wiczay's death, the coin dealer Rollin in Paris bough this entire collection c. 1830. However, Vienna acquired a good selection of pieces from the collection, and Paris even more so: Paris bought dozens and dozens of Wiczay's gold coins from Rollin after their entire collection of ancient gold was stolen and melted down in 1831. The bulk of his collection entered the trade and passed to other private collections, and the occasional Wiczay coin that Carroni illustrated or that was very rare and exhibits characteristic legend losses or other faults can be identified in twentieth-century sale or collection catalogues.
