MONOGRAPHS
Millingen, M.J. Recueil de quelques Médailles Greques Inédites. Rome 1812. 86 pages, 4 fold-out engraved plates. 4to (20.5x26cm), tan full leather, hand engraved titles to covers and spine. Very Good. Leitzmann 90
A note from BCD: This earlier Millingen work has been made into a work of art. Irrespective of its aesthetics, the book is very readable; connecting the text to the corresponding plates is a fascinating conceptualization of the way a numismatist's mind worked more than 200 years ago.
