BMC Alexandria

Pool, Reginald Stuart.  A Catalog of the Greek Coins in the British Museum, Alexandria.  (London, 1892).

An interesting early Alexandrian catalog containing a large number of extremely rare coins but at times missing some very common ones. A landmark collection-- well researched and built on the previous Feuardent and Mionnet catalogs. The coin plates are well worth the price of the book. Christiansen recently published additions and corrections to the collection.
