Peteghem, C. van. COLLECTION COLONEL MAILLIET. MONNAIES OBSIDIONALES ET DE NÉCESSITÉ. Paris, 22 novembre 1886 et jours suivants. viii, 176 pages; 1350 lots; text figures. [bound with] Peteghem, C. van. COLLECTION COLONEL MAILLIET. MONNAIES BELGES ET ÉTRANGÈRES JETONS, MÉDAILLES, MÉREAUX ET BIBLIOTHÈQUE. Paris, 4 novembre 1886 et jours suivants. (8), 380 pages; 8937 + 3500 + 200 lots (plus bis lots). 8vo, contemporary brown quarter morocco with mottled sides; spine ruled, lettered and decorated in gilt; marbled endpapers; original printed paper covers bound in. Extremities rubbed; else near fine. Two very scarce and important sale catalogues. The monumental sale of Mailliet's general collection of jetons and medals was held first. His more famous collection, also catalogued by van Peteghem, of obsidional coins followed less than two weeks later. Mailliet, of course, was the author of Catalogue descriptif des monnaies obsidionales et de nécessité (1868–1873), the classic work on siege and necessity coinage. Clain-Stefanelli 16317. Grierson 276. Ex Henri Macqueron Library.
