I have been looking for this book and cannot seem to find the bookstore at the publisher's web site, Austrian Academy of Sciences, although in the past I have found that section and indeed this book. I see it available from other sellers but I worry.

My understanding is that this is a 2-volume work. Yet many on the resale sites look to only be one volume for sale and I don't want to take the chance of only one volume when I need two. And the prices all reflect what the 2-volume work usually goes for.

Does anyone know if there is a one volume version of this and, if so, how does it compare to the 2-volume set? Also, if you have a link to the university book store web site, I would appreciate it. I do not believe that this publisher would infringe on the rules of Forum. I have not seen this book(s) on offer here. If they were, I would buy them from Forum.
Thanks,
Virgil

I believe Dr. Klaus Vondrovec is still the curator of the Vienna Münzkabinet.You could directly contact him there to have more details on the book. I e-mailed him in the past for a question about the museum, and he is a real gentleman who will be happy to help you.

Thank you, Dominic, I will contact him. That is indeed the way to go. I have seen many people like him that are very nice and open to inquiries from non-academics like me and have had some wonderful exchanges with folks like him.
