Coin books on the coins of ancient armenia
« on: February 01, 2018, 03:48:12 pm »
I have just aquired a number of ancient armenian coins, Is there a standard reference or 2 that I should pick up?

Thanks

You can start on the page of FAC. Then "ressources", etc.

I have read and highly recommend:
Armenian Coinage in the Classical Period,
(Classical Numismatic Studies No. 10).
by Frank L. Kovacs (Lancaster, 2016), 142 pages.

Part of the write-up:
"Building on the earlier work of Armenian numismatists Bedoukian, Nercessian,
and Mousheghian and Depeyrot, Armenian Coinage in the Classical Period begins
with the earliest known issues of Samos, after circa 275 BC, through the reign of
Tiridates II, to circa AD 252
". . . . - cont.
