A note from BCD: Although there is only one and a half plate of ancients, showing the best Roman and Byzantine gold of the sale, there are useful conclusions to be drawn from carefully checking the descriptions of non-illustrated coins and then comparing their prices to those of today's market. In doing so it should be remembered that Glendining's quality estimations or "grading" were very conservative.
