Post by: helvetica on June 09, 2019, 11:37:16 am

Jerome Mairat's fabulous and wonderfully researched thesis,

The coinage of the Gallic Empire
with the following short description:

This thesis presents a new systematic arrangement of the coinage of the Gallic Empire as the basis for a revised edition of Roman Imperial Coinage. The coinage of all denominations, gold, silver and bronze, are unified into a single structure of issues.

It is available for download as 6 pdfs (a total of ca. 240 Mb) free of charge (no sign-up required) from the University of Oxford:

Vol. 1 is the introduction, various chapters of the dates, iconography, find spots, hoards information, mints, types etc, and the catalog itself.
Vols 2, part 1,2,3,4 and 5 are all the plates.
