Sylloge Nummorum Graecorum. VOLUME V: ASHMOLEAN MUSEUM. PART I(A): ITALY. ETRURIA-LUCANIA (THURIUM). PART II: ITALY. LUCANIA (THURIUM)-BRUTTIUM. SICILY. CARTHAGE. PART III: MACEDONIA. PART IV: PAEONIA-THESSALY. First editions. London: Published for the British Academy, 1962-81. 82 fine plates of coins, each with a leaf of facing descriptive text. Folio, original printed brown card covers or cloth-backed boards. Titles written on spines in ink. Near fine. The first four parts of this important series. The initial Part I (published in 1951) focused purely on the Evans collection coins. In the succeeding years, so many more coins were acquired by the Ashmolean that the organizers realized that a full presentation made more sense than the sectional approach at first utilized, so the series began anew with Volume I(A).
