Greek Coin Studies: Animals, Archaic Smiles, Athens, and Marathos

By Jasper Burns

A compilation of three illustrated studies by Jasper Burns of ancient Greek coins, published separately as The 'Archaic Smile' and Greek Coins, The Early Coins of Athens, and The Hellenistic Coins of Marathos: A New Chronology. In addition, a substantial excerpt from the book Ancient Animals and Their Coins by the same author is included with a focus on Greek examples. (All of these books are available on Amazon as stand alone titles.) Finally, a brief account of a misunderstood coin of Phokis is presented as an appendix.

Jasper Burns is the author and illustrator of more than 50 books. His titles include Irish Hammered Pennies of Edward IV-Henry VII, (Pietas), Fossil Collecting in the Mid-Atlantic States (Johns Hopkins), Great Women of Imperial Rome (Routledge), Coin Stories (Pietas), and The Roman Sestertius: A Collector's Guide (Pietas).
