A note from BCD: The ideal companion for a doctor who collects Greek and Roman coins. Some of the Asklepios attributes may be far-fetched for a conservative mind but on the other hand a fertile imagination could add even more subjects that are somehow connected to medicine. The ten attractive plates illustrate coins mostly from various European museums and collections, but there are quite a number from the author's own collection as well.
