Ponton d'Amécourt, Vicomte de. ESSAI SUR LA NUMISMATIQUE MÉROVINGIENNE COMPARÉE À LA GÉOGRAPHIE DE GRÉGOIRE DE TOURS. LETTRE À M. ALFRED JACOBS. Paris, 1864. 8vo, original printed wraps. vii, (1), 220 pages. Unopened and fine. A rather scarce inaugural work by Ponton d'Amécourt, virtually as new. Clain-Stefanelli 5768, which erroneously calls for 26 plates: this is complete as published. Engel et Serrure 68 (not calling for any plates): "Tirée à 500 exemplaires. Cet Essai ... est le premier ouvrage critique fait sur un ensemble de monnaies mérovingiennes."
