Mint marks have existed since antiquity; even the Romans and Greeks marked their coins. This practical little handbook lists over 1,700 such marks, aiding in the identification of coins from around the world. In addition to symbolic coin images, these marks are usually small signs, letters, and abbreviations that indicate the minting location and often the mint master as well. Therefore, they are essential criteria for every coin collector, dealer, and history enthusiast to learn more about the coin they hold. With its country-based and chronological structure, this book is particularly easy to use and provides all the necessary information in a compact and accessible format. A useful and practical tool for anyone interested in coins.
