A note from BCD: A famous sale dispersing the gold of an equally famous personage. The two-page introduction by Ambrogio Canessa is worth translating just to get a taste of a lost era and a glimpse of old world numismatics. Greek gold occupies 4 plates, Roman another 15 and Byzantine gold is on 3 more plates.
