The President’s Note - Il saluto del Presidente
Dear INC members, dear colleagues and friends,
On behalf of the INC I wish you
all a happy and prosperous
New Year! It is an important
year for our Council and for
the numismatic community
at large since it is the year
of our XVth International
Congress, which will take
place in Taormina, September
21-25, 2015. It is, as you
know, the most important
event for the INC, and its
organization, as well as the
publication of the Survey of
Dr. Carmen Arnold-Biucchi
Numismatic Research, are the
major charges of our Committee. I hope many of you
are planning to come and I look forward to seeing many
old friends and colleagues and to meet many new ones,
Sicily is one of the most spectacular and interesting
islands of the Mediterranean full of history and touristic
attractions set in a luxuriantly beautiful landscape. So
after almost a week of numismatic work, you can enjoy
and discover the countryside, not to mention the culinary
delights and wineries. You will find all information on
http://www.xvcin.unime.it .
I am pleased to report that everything is proceeding
according to schedule: the deadline for submitting
abstracts was November 30 and we now have accepted
400 papers and 50 posters, which the Organizing
Committee will arrange into sessions by subjects. Please,
remember to finalize your submission by registering
by January 31 to confirm your participation. Grants
applicants have until April 30 to register.
The subeditors of the Survey have done an amazing work
of collecting and editing the different contributions and
the volume will go to the publisher by the end of the month
and will be available at the Congress in September. You
can subscribe to it on the registration form (price € 35 ).
The IAPN once again is assuming the costs of publication
and I want to express my gratitude to all its members and
in particular to its President Arne Kirsch. We can be proud
that in these times of polarization on a multitude of issues
about cultural property, we can find common ground and
collaborate to the benefit of numismatics.
The INC Committee will meet in Taormina in March to
make sure that everything will be ready to welcome you in
September and make your participation as productive and
pleasant as possible. I also want to thank the Scientific
and Organizing Committee for all their work: we are in
a period of recession and economic instability and the
financing of this Congress is one of the most challenging
the INC ever had to face. Governments can no longer
afford to be as generous as Spain was in 2003 and offer
a spectacular Palace of Congresses for free. Banks as
well have less flexibility for funding cultural events. This
Congress has to be financed by all of us through the
registration fees and by whatever gifts we can get. We
are still looking for sponsors and will be grateful for your
help and support.
The numismatic community has lost two of its
outstanding members in the past months: Jean-Pierre
Callu (Paris 1929 – Donville-les-Bains 2014) and Jan
Janus Krasnodębski (Natalin 1930-West London
2013). You will find their obituaries below and we shall
remember them with all our other colleagues at the
General Assembly in Taormina.
You can read all other news since last July below.
Arrivederci a Taormina!
Cari membri del CIN, cari colleghi e amici,
In nome del CIN auguro a tutti voi un Felice e Fruttuoso
Anno Nuovo! È un anno importante per il nostro Consiglio
e per la comunità numismatica in generale poiché è
l’anno del XVo Congresso Internazionale di Numismatica
che avrà luogo a Taormina del 21 al 25 settembre
prossimi, Come sapete questo è l’avvenimento più
importante per il CIN e l’organizzazione del Congresso
congiunta alla pubblicazione del Survey of Numismatic
Research costituiscono il compito maggiore del nostro
International Numismatic e-Newletter 18
| January 2015 | 1
Comitato. Spero che molti di voi verranno a Taormina
e mi rallegro di rivedere tanti vecchi amici e colleghi e
di incontrarne molti nuovi. La Sicilia è una delle isole
più spettacolari del Mediterraneo con la sua storia e
attrazioni turistiche situate in un paesaggio splendido.
Dopo quasi una settimana di studi numismatici potrete
prolungare il soggiorno e godervi le bellezze della natura
unitamente a delizie gastronomiche e vini pregiati.
Troverete tutte le informazioni necessarie su http://www.
xvcin.unime.it .
Sono lieta di potervi riferire che le preparazioni
proseguono come previsto: la scadenza per l’invio
di proposte per presentare una comunicazione era
il 30 novembre 2014. Abbiamo ora accettato 400
comunicazioni e 50 posters che il Comitato Scientifico
organizzerà in varie sessioni tematiche. Per confermare
la vostra partecipazione dovete riempire il formulario in
rete e pagare la quota d’iscrizione entro il 31 gennaio
(per i borsisti entro il 30 aprile).
Il Survey è quasi pronto e andrà in stampa alla fine del
mese grazie all’ottimo e indefesso lavoro degli editori di
sezione che hanno scelto gli autori, sollecitato contributi
e corretto i manoscritti entro i tempi fissati. Il volume
sarà in vendita in settembre al Congresso e può anche
essere comandato sul formulario di registrazione (35 €).
L’AIPN ha di nuovo generosamente offerto di assumersi
le spese di stampa per il Survey e tengo a esprimere a
tutti i soci e in particolare al suo Presidente Arne Kirsch
la mia profonda riconoscenza, Possiamo congratularci
in questi tempi di antagonismo e posizioni estreme su
questioni di patrimonio culturale, di saper creare un
terreno comune di collaborazione per il progresso della
numismatica in generale.
Il Comitato del CIN terrà la sua riunione annuale a
Taormina in marzo per accertarsi che tutto sarà pronto
in settembre per rendere la vostra partecipazione e
soggiorno i più piacevoli possibili. Colgo l’occasione per
ringraziare il Comitato Scientifico e Organizzativo per il
loro enorme lavoro. Siamo in un periodo di recessione
e instabilità economica e il finanziamento di questo
Congresso è probabilmente uno dei più impegnativi che il
CIN in tutta la sua storia abbia dovuto affrontare: governi
e stati non possono permettersi di mettere a disposizione
gratuitamente un Palazzo dei Congressi come quello
di Madrid nel 2003. Anche le banche hanno possibilità
ridotte per sostenere organizzazioni culturali. Il Congresso
di Taormina sarà finanziato da tutti noi in gran parte
tramite le quote d’iscrizione e i rari sussidi che possiamo
ottenere. Continuiamo a cercare sponsorizzatori e saremo
grati per qualsiasi aiuto.
La comunità numismatica nei mesi passati ha perso
due insigni personalità: Jean-Pierre Callu (Parigi 1929
– Donville-les-Bains 2014) e Jan Janus Krasnodębski
(Natalin 1930-West London 2013). Potete leggere le loro
necrologie qui sotto.
Questa INeN 18 vi porta tutte le altre novità importanti dal
luglio scorso.
Arrivederci a Taormina!
Reports from Institutions - Announcements
Staatliche Münzsammlung München
In 2014, continuing from 2013, the exhibition “Wettstreit
in Erz. Porträtmedaillen der Deutschen Renaissance”
was shown (through May, 4: see http://www.staatlichemuenzsammlung.de/presse-031213.html). From Munich,
this exhibition went to the Kunsthistorisches Museum at
Vienna.
On Feb. 7 and 8, 2014, the Institute of History of Art of the
Munich Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität in cooperation
with the Staatliche Münzsammlung held the colloquium
„Die andere Seite. Funktionen und Wissensformen der
frühen Medaille“ on the subject of Renaissance medals.
From May, 15 to October 5, 2014, the exhibition “100
Köpfe, gestaltet vom Bildhauer, Kupferstecher und
Medailleur Hubertus von Pilgrim” showed all the medals
and other selected works of Prof. Hubertus von Pilgrim
(born 1931), see: http://www.staatliche-muenzsammlung.
de/presse-140514.html. From Oct. 9, 2014 to May 3,
2015, the Staatliche Münzsammlung shows “Natur –
Zufall Kunst. Die Natur im Medaillenwerk von Friedrich
Brenner”, a selection of medals mainly referring to nature
or having their origin or model in nature from the oeuvre of
Friedrich Brenner (born 1939), see http://www.staatlichemuenzsammlung.de/presse-071014.html. In May 2015
there will an exhibition on the “Antiquity on Bank Notes”
and in autumn 2015 an exhibition on German and Austrian
medals of World War I.
On the basis of several 13th century hoards from various
parts of Bavaria, the Staatliche Münzsammlung together
with the Vienna Coin Cabinet runs a project of investigation
of High Medieval coinage from South Germany, Tyrolia
and Austria, which will result in the publication of various
articles and in an exhibition, which will be shown at
Vienna, Bozen (Bolzano) and Munich.
Apart from other acquisitions, the Munich collection of
shares, stocks and bonds was especially increased
thanks to private donors.
From Oct. 25 to Oct. 26, the Deutsche Gesellschaft für
Medaillenkunst (DGMK) held its annual meeting in the
Staatliche Münzsammlung, in cojunction with a market of
medals by the artists.
The banknote collection of the HVB Stiftung
Geldscheinsammlung with its ca. 300.000 banknotes and
other paper money is one of the world’s largest collections
of this kind. Given as a permanent loan to the Staatliche
Münzsammlung by the statutes of the foundation already
in 2003, it had not been possible up to now to find
adequate rooms for this collection close to the Staatliche
Münzsammlung. To show the close connection between
the two collections, in conjunction with the exhibition on
Renaissance medals, an exhibition on representations of
motives relating to the Renaissance on banknotes was
organized, from the stock of this banknote collection, as
the 2015 exhibition on Antiquity on banknotes will draw
from pieces of the HVB Stiftung’s collection.

360° interactive Citi Money Gallery video
A new 360° degree interactive tour of the Citi Money
Gallery is now available on the British Museum website.
The video, which takes the viewer on a tour of over 4500
years of monetary history, uses the latest immersive
technology to offer a multi-layered interactive experience.
Including links to a wealth of extra content, the video is a
great introduction to the Citi Money Gallery which opened
in 2012.

on the Museum’s global collection relaying the story of
money over the past 4,500 years. It offers students the
opportunity to visit the museum in order to interact with
the Citi Money Gallery itself, including handling objects
from the collection. Onsite sessions begin with general
financial education activities, at both the personal and
national level, and object handling. Schools can then
select a subject for the afternoon through which to deliver
financial education; mathematics, business studies, art,
drama, economics, geography, English and history as
well as a cross curricular option.

Citi Money Gallery Education Programme
The British Museum has developed a unique programme
to assist secondary school teachers in delivering the
new financial education requirements as part of the
revised national curriculum. The newly developed Citi
Money Gallery secondary education programme delivers
financial education in a historical context through
objects in the collection, emphasising the development
of money in society, various cultural relationships with
money and the role money has played in the creation
and destruction of entities. The sessions and resources
have been developed by the British Museum, with the
support of Citi, for use with schools from September
2014. The programme comprises onsite functional
sessions, enrichment days and online material, drawing

American Numismatic Society, New York 61th
Annual Eric P. Newman Graduate Summer
Seminar in Numismatics
June 8 through July 31, 2015
For over half a century, The American Numismatic Society,
a scholarly organization and museum of coins, money, and
economic history, has offered select graduate students
and junior faculty the opportunity to work hands-on with
its preeminent numismatic collections. With over threequarters of a million objects, the collection is particularly
strong in Greek, Roman, Islamic, Far Eastern, and US
and Colonial coinages, as well as Medallic Art. Located
in New York City’s SoHo district, the Society also houses
the world’s most complete numismatic library.
The rigorous eight-week course, taught by ANS staff,
guest lecturers, and a Visiting Scholar, introduces students
to the methods, theories, and history of the discipline. In
addition to the lecture program, students will select a
numismatic research topic and, utilizing ANS resources,
complete a paper or digital project while in residence. The
Seminar is intended to provide students of History, Art
History, Textual Studies, and Archeology who have little
or no numismatic background with a working knowledge
of a body of evidence that is often overlooked and poorly

understood. Successful applicants are typically doctoral
candidates or junior faculty in a related discipline, but
masters candidates are admitted as well.
This year’s Visiting Scholar will be Prof. Dr. Aleksander
Bursche of the Archaeology Institute of the University of
Warsaw. Prof. Bursche is a specialist of the relationships
between Greeks, Romans and ‘Barbarians’, with
a particular emphasis on monetary and economic
interactions.
Applications are due no later than February 13, 2015. A
limited number of stipends of up to $4000 are available
to US citizens, and non-US citizens studying at US
institutions under certain visas. For application forms
and further information, please see the Summer Seminar

Thrace – local coinage and regional identity:
Numismatic research in the digital age
Berlin, April 15th to 17th, 2015
The Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and
Humanities and the Berlin Coin Cabinet would like to
inform you about a numismatic conference in Berlin from
April 15th to April 17th, 2015.
The conference will consist of two parts: First there will
be a workshop entitled ‘The ancient coins of Thrace – the
numismatic web portal www.corpus-nummorum.eu’. This
workshop will present our web portal as a useful research
tool for Thracian coinage and will show how using the
database allows an all-encompassing diachronic and
synchronic comparison of Thracian coin types. The portal
is to be seen in a broader international context in order to
establish an online typology of Greek coinage (see INeN
17, July 2014, p. 13–15 The New Landscape of Ancient
Numismatics and www.greekcoinage.org).
The second part of the colloquium will concentrate on
a historical-numismatic question: Is it possible to trace
in the various and, at the first glance, quite different
local Thracian coinages a specific Thracian identity?
This question requires above all a discussion regarding
the regional forms that developed within this Greek
phenomenon of minting and monetized economy. Can
indigenous traditions be found beneath the Greek and
Roman iconography?
The same question is raised concerning the political and
economic use of coinage. Here the main focus concerns
to what extent the coinages of the 44 known Thracian
mints reflect or propagate local, regional or collective
Thracian identities. A diachronic view is in this case
particularly important. How can social, economic and
administrative changes cause transformations of local
constructs of identity? In what ways is coinage used as
an instrument of authority in Thrace? In addition internal
structures – geographical, ethnic or political – should
be, wherever feasible from the coinage, examined: Is it
possible to subdivide the greater area of Thrace on the
basis of the designs of its coinage and the practiced
monetized economy? Which elements during which
periods were responsible for creating identity? What
roles did myths, historical events and buildings play? Do
meaningful themes exist for the construction of Thracian
identity which also cover longer periods of time and are
consistently mirrored in coin types?
There will be more than 40 presentations (papers and
posters) from experts all over the world – for the detailed
program see the news on our website www.corpusnummorum.eu.
We are looking forward to welcoming you in Berlin in April!
The coin issues from the historical territory of Thrace are
known for their great diversity: ranging from the early
Thraco-Macedonian tribes to the end of minting in the
3rd century AD. In 2013 we started a research project on
these various coinages and we would like to introduce
the first results – a web portal of Thracian coins – and
to discuss the current state of numismatic research on
Thrace as well as to examine the opportunities offered
by a collaborative collection and classification of coins in
the digital age.

include famous classicists and numismatists like JeanJacques Barthélemy, Christian Gottlob Heyne, Gaetano
Marini or Georg Zoëga as well as coin collectors like Pieter
van Damme and Michele Vargas Macciucca. Surprisingly,
these letters had never been looked at in depth before.
Apart from one letter, they are presently bound in a single
volume, kept in the archives of the coin cabinet of the
Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna. They are written
in five different languages (French, Italian, Latin, German
and Dutch) and span the period from 1772 to 1797. In
addition to the letters kept in Vienna, 74 letters written
by Eckhel to his correspondents have been located to
date by the project team in foreign archives and various
publications; this material allows us to integrate and
sometimes complete Eckhel’s exchange with some of his
correspondents. It provides information on relations with
people not represented in the Vienna archive, and most
of all it preserves Eckhel’s own “voice”, passing on his
personal thoughts and remarks on several scientific and
methodological matters.
This new and exciting group of sources for a crucial period
in the history of numismatics calls for a reassessment
of the importance of Eckhel for the development of
numismatic method, as well as for a contextualisation of
Eckhel’s work within Enlightenment research in general.
Hence, an international congress on the topic will be
held at the Austrian Academy of Sciences from 27 to 30
May 2015.
The keynote of the event will be delivered by Hans
Erich Bödeker (University of Göttingen) on: “Zwischen
Gelehrsamkeit
und
Forschung.
Umprägungen
aufklärerischer Wissenschaftlichkeit.” From 28‒30 May,
sessions of the congress will take place at the Austrian
Academy of Sciences and at the Kunsthistorisches
Museum Vienna. About 20 papers on various aspects of
Eckhel’s work will be given by historians, numismatists
and experts in the history of numismatic research from
Europe and the United States. The proceedings of the
event, which is sponsored by the Austrian Science Fund
(FWF), will be published in Vienna.
More information on the congress will be available from
early February 2015 at: www.oeaw.ac.at/eckhel2015

La ricerca numismatica in Italia e la rivista
“Annali”
luglio 2015
In occasione della pubblicazione del n. 60 degli “Annali”
dell’Istituto Italiano di Numismatica nel luglio 2015 si
svolgerà un incontro su:
“La ricerca numismatica in Italia e la rivista “Annali”.
L’incremento delle attività di indagine nei siti archeologici,
l’affinamento della tecnica dello scavo archeologico, lo
sviluppo delle conoscenze tecnico-scientifiche sui metalli
e sulle lavorazioni, l’aumento della documentazione
materiale disponibile, hanno stimolato e favorito la
ricerca numismatica, che ha suggerito nuove letture,
accompagnando, dal versante numismatico, le nuove
correnti storiografiche.
Main building of the Austrian Academy of Sciences, housing the Academy since 1857.
The building, opened to the public in 1756, was originally the “Neue Aula” of the
University of Vienna. Here Eckhel, as a professor of classics of the university, used to
teach his classes.

Research programs - Work in progress
La collezione numismatica del Museo
Nazionale di Ravenna: i materiali di epoca
romana repubblicana
Il Museo Nazionale di Ravenna, istituito nel 1885 e
collocato nella prestigiosa sede dell’ex monastero
benedettino di San Vitale fin dal 1913-1914, conserva
un consistente patrimonio artistico ed archeologico, che
trae le sue origini dalle eterogenee raccolte di antiquaria,
tipiche del collezionismo di matrice illuminista, formate,
nel corso del Settecento, dai monaci camaldolesi di
Classe, poi arricchitesi nel tempo attraverso donazioni,
acquisti e ritrovamenti.
Con l’intento di proseguire nella valorizzazione e nella
divulgazione di questo importante patrimonio, di recente
si è proceduto alla predisposizione di un progetto
finalizzato allo studio e alla pubblicazione delle monete
romane di epoca repubblicana e imperiale appartenenti
alla collezione ravennate.
Attualmente è stato condotto a termine l’esame del
nucleo di epoca romana repubblicana, che costituisce
una documentazione assai consistente sia per la quantità,
contando complessivamente 901 esemplari in argento e
in bronzo, che per l’arco cronologico coperto, esteso tra
il primo venticinquennio del III secolo a.C. e il 32-31 a.C.
Per tutti gli esemplari, nella quasi totalità già oggetto
di schedatura ministeriale nel corso degli anni Settanta
e Ottanta del secolo scorso – a cui si sono aggiunti in
questa fase piccoli nuclei finora non catalogati –, si è
proceduto all’acquisizione delle immagini digitali e ad una
nuova catalogazione.
L’analisi puntuale degli esemplari è stata affiancata
dalla ricerca d’archivio, che ha consentito di mettere
in luce i diversi passaggi e le trasformazioni subite nel
tempo dalla raccolta numismatica e specificamente da
questo nucleo, con particolare attenzione, da un lato, alla
documentazione proveniente dal territorio e, dall’altro,
alla matrice collezionistica dell’intera raccolta.
Serie anonima Giano/Prua (aes grave), Roma, 225-217 a.C., Asse. MNaRa, inv. 268.
Tra queste raccolte spicca, per qualità e quantità degli
esemplari, quella numismatica, la cui fisionomia attuale
appare come l’esito delle vicende complessive di
formazione e sviluppo delle istituzioni culturali cittadine.
A partire dagli anni Settanta del secolo scorso, la
collezione numismatica del Museo Nazionale è stata
oggetto di ricognizioni e riordini, che hanno portato allo
studio, alla divulgazione scientifica e all’esposizione di
vari nuclei di materiali. Grazie alla proficua collaborazione
instauratasi tra il Museo Nazionale di Ravenna e la
Cattedra di Numismatica dell’Università di Bologna, sono
state realizzate pubblicazioni scientifiche relative ai nuclei
tardoimperiale, barbarico e bizantino, al nucleo medievale
e ad una piccola sezione di medaglie, affiancate da
approfondimenti sulla documentazione proveniente dal
territorio e da analisi di tematiche specifiche.
Serie anonima, Roma, post 211 a.C., Denario. MNaRa, inv. 347.
I materiali di epoca romana repubblicana appartenenti alla
collezione numismatica del Museo Nazionale di Ravenna
sono attualmente in corso di pubblicazione presso
l’Editore Quasar di Roma, in un volume di prossima uscita
nell’ambito della serie “Tesori per la Storia”: A.L. Morelli,
Monete di età romana repubblicana nel Museo Nazionale
di Ravenna, Edizioni Quasar, Roma, ISBN 978-88-7140598-8.

Connecting continents: Indian Ocean trade and
exchange
The British Museum
27 November 2014 – 31 May 2015
This small display features objects showing the long and
complex history of Indian Ocean trade and exchange,
from ancient times to the present.
For thousands of years, the Indian Ocean has been a
space through which people, objects and ideas have
circulated. The navigable monsoon winds enabled
merchants to travel between Africa, the Middle East and
Asia, exchanging valuable commodities such as textiles,
spices and ceramics. From early coastal trade between
the great ancient civilisations of the Indus Valley and
Mesopotamia through to the heyday of European East
India Companies and to the present, the Indian Ocean
has remained a dynamic economic maritime zone.

RPC volume IX is online
Volume IX of Roman Provincial Coinage is now published
online on the RPC website: http://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk
This volume covers the reigns of Trajan Decius and his
family, Trebonianus Gallus and Volusian, and of Aemilian
and Uranius Antoninus, i.e. from AD 249 to 254.

monumental: a catalogue of 7,115 coin types, recording
41,996 coins (of which 6,394 have images).
Finally, Pere Pau Ripollès is working on a consolidated
version of the three RPC supplements, which should be
ready for the International Congress in September.
2015 promises to be an exciting year for the Roman
Provincial Coinage project!

The work was commenced by Eduardo Levante, but his
death left an unfinished manuscript. The volume was
eventually taken over and has been completed by Antony
Hostein (Paris) & Jerome Mairat (Oxford).
Your feedback and contributions will help to improve both
the online version and the paper version, which should be
published in about a year.
A few figures: 2,311 coin types, recording 12,331 coins,
of which 7,447 have online images. From Viminacium
in the West to Rhesaena in Mesopotamia in the East,
provincial coinage in this period was issued by no fewer
than 119 cities. Most issues are from Asia Minor, although
the most productive mints of this volume were elsewhere:
Viminacium, Antioch in Syria, Caesarea Maritima and
Alexandria in Egypt. The coins produced by the client
kingdom of Bosporus is covered for the years 249-254.
The gold coinage of Uranius Antoninus, produced at
Emesa with Latin inscriptions, is also included, alongside
the silver tetradrachms and the bronze coins in his name.
The launch of the new online volume provided the
opportunity to improve the existing website of the project.
First, the underlying database and the core of the website
have been entirely rewritten in order to make the website
multi-volume – a difficult but necessary step for the future
of the project.
Secondly, RPC volume IV (from Antoninus Pius to
Commodus) now offers a considerable number of new
images, making it easier to search and more complete.
Thirdly, an important new facility allows the mapping of
research results. One example: where does Roma occur
on provincial coinage? Search for ‘Roma’ then choose
‘Map view’ (see figure). The maps are zoomable and allow
a better understanding of the geography and the patterns
of the coinage. The potential of instant visualizations of
search results for research and teaching is enormous.
Volume III (Nerva - Hadrian) by Michel Amandry and
Andrew Burnett will be published later this year, both
online and on paper. This long awaited volume will be

Susanna SILBERSTEIN TREVISANI CECCHERINI, La
monetazione di Reggio magnogreca dal IV sec. a.C. alla
chiusura della zecca. Postfazione di Ermanno A. Arslan,
Roma: Gangemi Editore, 2014. ISBN 978-88-492-2885-4.
Il volume costituisce una sintesi della produzione monetale
di Rhegion, limitatamente a quella emessa fra il IV e il I
sec. a.C., e ne illustra i vari aspetti – da quello cronologico,
metrologico e tipologico-iconografico a quello relativo alla
sua ampia diffusione – effettuandone anche utili confronti
con altre monetazioni coeve, soprattutto della Magna Grecia
e della Sicilia. Queste emissioni si concentrano nei due
secoli che intercorrono dall’anno 356 a.C., in cui Dionigi II
si stabilisce nella polis, fino al momento della chiusura della
zecca, evento che viene
qui datato intorno alla metà
del II sec. a.C. Un periodo
dunque che abbraccia
momenti decisivi della
storia di Rhegion, dalla
sua alleanza con Roma
(282 a.C.) e l’acquisizione
dello status di civitas
foederata
(270
a.C.),
fino al coinvolgimento
nelle due prime guerre
puniche (264-241 a.C.
e 218-202 a.C.), che
segnano l’inizio del suo
passaggio da un ambito
culturale prevalentemente
greco a uno, in cui la
scelta della polis si
sposta progressivamente
verso il mondo romano,
pur mantenendo i tratti
fondamentali
delle
proprie radici. L’esame di oltre 4000 monete, emesse dalla
zecca reggina durante questo arco temporale, permette di
individuare 44 serie, che vengono ripartite in otto Periodi. Ne
risulta un quadro di riferimento per le singole serie monetali,
per ciascuna delle quali, oltre a un suo inquadramento
storico, viene effettuata una dettagliata descrizione
analitica, con l’intento di fornire a studiosi e ad archeologi
uno strumento interpretativo di questa monetazione. A
tale proposito vengono anche indicate le diverse posizioni
sostenute da vari autori sui singoli problemi, dando cosí una
puntuale bibliografia relativa agli argomenti trattati. Il testo è
concepito come opera di consultazione e di approfondimento
scientifico, ma può anche essere letto – grazie alla chiara
articolazione con cui si susseguono le varie tematiche – da
quanti desiderino avvicinarsi ai problemi e ai metodi della
numismatica classica, esaminandone da vicino un concreto

modello di monetazione, storicamente ben delimitato, qual
è quello preso qui in considerazione. Il volume si conclude
con una Postfazione di Ermanno A. Arslan – dal titolo “Note,
riflessioni e problematiche inerenti alla monetazione di
Rhegion dal IV al I sec. a.C., nel quadro dei suoi rapporti
con Roma, e delle realtà politiche, economiche e culturali del
mondo magnogreco” – che aggiunge nuove considerazioni
e stimoli per ulteriori approfondimenti e ricerche.

The Coinage of the Opountian Lokrians, London: Royal
Numismatic Society Special Publication no. 50, 2014, vii
+ 254 pp., 61 pl.
This publication deals with the entire coinage, silver and
bronze, of the Opountian Lokrians in Central Greece from
the early fourth century BC to the later first century AD.
Introductory chapters deal with
the history and mythology of the
region and the various forms
of ethnic found on the coins
and in literary and epigraphic
sources. They are followed by
full die-studies of all series in
both metals and discussion of
their dates and significance.
The silver, belonging mostly if
not entirely to the fourth century
BC, comprises an abundant
series of staters of high artistic
quality, drachms, triobols, and
smaller fractions in several
denominations. The bronze is
divided into 42 groups, ranging
in date from the mid-4th century
BC to AD c.68/69.

El coleccionismo de moneda y epígrafes antiguos que
arranca ya desde el siglo XVI y tiene su culmen en el siglo
XIX ha sido la fuente de alimentación principal de todos
nuestros museos hasta el siglo XX. Las grandes colecciones
iban
acreciendo
su
importancia a medida que
absorbían las pequeñas y
locales. Muchas de ellas
pasaron al Estado gracias
a donaciones y compras,
incluso las colecciones
reales,
otras
salieron
de España por falta de
recursos del gobierno.
Este es el caso de la
gran colección de finales
del siglo XIX de Rafael
Cervera, quien nos ha
dejado en su inventariomanuscrito, hasta ahora
inédito, todos los datos
de procedencia de cada
moneda: el coleccionista
a quien se la compra, el
territorio donde éste actúa
y la descripción de tipos
y leyendas de cada pieza. Datos todos ellos importantes
para la ciencia numismática, sobre todo al estar formada
la colección por piezas excepcionales por su conservación,
calidad artística y rareza de tipos o leyendas.
Rafael Cervera llegó a reunir a finales del siglo XIX la mejor
colección privada de moneda española. Su alto valor
económico impidió que el Estado Español la comprara
pero sin embargo pudo ser adquirida por el gran hispanófilo
Archer M. Huntington para The Hispanic Society of
America (New York). A ella ha pertenecido durante más
de un siglo y en 2012 esta institución la ha vendido en
subasta a través de Sotheby’s. El presente libro ofrece un
estudio pormenorizado de las 1.500 monedas –griegas,
púnicas, ibéricas, celtibéricas, turdetanas...– realizado con
anterioridad a su diáspora.

from Caesar to Theodosius
II; 17 Late Roman – from the
period after the conventional

of
Pannonia (AD 430); 28

found on the territory of
ancient Roman metropolis
of Carnuntum – Pannonia
Superior (today’s, PetronellCarnuntum, Austria), a city
placed at junction point
between the Amber and
the Limes roads. At the
present state of research,
none of these coins were
discovered within a hoard,
which, if the information is
right, places Carnuntum
among the sites that provided the largest number of gold
coins found as single finds. The coin catalogue is preceded
by introductive chapters regarding the history of Carnuntum
during the chronological segments that have produced the

This collection of essays, arising from a seminar organized
in Paris by UMR 8210 (AnHiMa), presents a dozen papers
devoted to the study of the payment of Roman soldiers.
Containing papers in French and English by experts
from different specialities, historians, numismatists and
papyrologists, it examines various aspects of the payment of
the troops, both in cash and in kind: the administration and
the amount of the salary, payments in kind, coin types used,
exceptional rewards, the ways in which imperial propoganda
was communicated by means of particular coin issues and
their images, all within a temporal range running from the civil
wars that brought an end to the Republic up to the beginning
of Late Antiquity. The volume gives both a picture of the state
of research on these topics and covers a series of questions
that are still debated by experts in the field. Readers will
also find a rich bibliography covering the historical sources,
numismatics and papyrology. The introduction, from the pen
of J. Andreau, and the conclusion, by M. Christol, help to
contextualize the collection as a whole in relation to current
research.

además
de

imágenes ya sean pintadas,

trasladan a otros escenarios
en el que los animales
tuvieron
un

simbólico. El análisis de los
contextos ha sido de gran
importancia para determinar
la existencia de, al menos,
dos sistemas simbólicos
que no son excluyentes:
el
aristocrático,
cuya
meta principal es la autorepresentación identitaria de
hombres y mujeres; y el religioso donde fundamentalmente
interesa honrar a las divinidades, ensalzar sus valores y
mediar en el tránsito de los difuntos al Más Allá.
La numismática constituye un mundo particular, pues si
bien en algunos casos existe una coincidencia con otros
soportes, por ejemplo el caballo como representante
del varón ibero, en la mayor parte de los casos tiene una
personalidad propia. En este libro se recopilan y analizan
todas las figuras de animales que aparecen en las monedas
antiguas de la Península Ibérica.

Medieval, Modern and Contemporary
Numismatics
Ashgate Press launch New Editorial Series: Religion and
Money in the Middle Ages
The series aims to explore the connections between two
of the most dominant aspects of medieval society and
culture: religion and money. Both are ubiquitous throughout
the Middle Ages, and both are expressed through a wide
variety of media, from the textual to the material. In this light,
the series recognises the importance of multi-disciplinary
perspectives, as well as single-disciplinary perspectives, on
the issues and questions connected to religion and money.
All disciplinary perspectives are welcome, particularly from
archaeology, history (social, ecclesiastical, intellectual and
economic), theology, anthropology and numismatics.
Of especial interest are studies that explore issues on the
theory and practice of money within religious contexts.
Examples might include attitudes towards money expressed
in intellectual systems and by individual religious thinkers,
how religious institutions organized their economies, and
attitudes towards money in daily life and at a practical level,
from larger communities, to individuals. Studies of the
interconnections and contrasts, overlaps and distinctions,
between these attitudes and practices are encouraged.
How differences between theory and practice emerge, how
they are reconciled, or how they remain unresolved, are
questions the series is keen to explore. The range of source
material available, and the centrality of both subjects to
medieval life, culture, belief and activity, allow for breadth
and depth of investigation and insight into the medieval
past at its most intimate and in its largest institutions and
social structures.

Bringing together essays from experts in a variety of
disciplines, this collection explores two of the most
important facets of life within the medieval Europe: money
and the church. By focusing on the interactions between
these subjects, the volume addresses four key themes.
Firstly it offers new perspectives on the role of churchmen
in providing conceptual frameworks, from outright
condemnation, to sophisticated economic theory, for the use
and purpose of money within medieval society. Secondly it
discusses the dichotomy of money for the church and its
International Numismatic e-Newletter 18
| January 2015 | 14
officers: on one hand voices emphasise the moral difficulties
in engaging with money, on the other the reality of the
ubiquitous use of money in the church at all levels and in
places within Christendom. Thirdly it places in dialogue interdisciplinary perspectives and approaches, and evidence
from philosophy, history, literature and material culture, to
the issues of money and church. Lastly, the volume provides
new perspectives on the role of the church in the process
of monetization in the High Middle Ages.
Concentrating on
northern Europe, from the early eleventh century to the
beginning of the thirteenth century, the collection is able
to explore the profound changes in the use of money and
the rise of a money-economy that this period and region
witnessed. By adopting a multi-disciplinary approach, the
collection challenges current understanding of how money
was perceived, understood and used by medieval clergy in
a range of different contexts. It furthermore provides wideranging contributions to the broader economic and ethical
issues of the period, demonstrating how the church became
a major force in the process of monetization.

Hungarian numismatic literature has been lacking
comprehensive book, wherein the legends and the
abbreviated inscriptions would be discussed. These
scripts had been Latin for eight and half centuries and the
reading and interpretation of them were difficult even for the
contemporary layman. The abbreviations are written out in
full and the coats-of-arms
within the designs are
identified.
In the first part of the book
the history of writing is
discussed along with the
inscriptions and touching
upon the rules of heraldic
in the light of numismatic
specificities. This is where
the family coats-of-arms
are
treated
drawing
attention to the fact that
these signs (stamped
signatures) appeared as
identification marks of the
treasure bailiff responsible
for mintage.
The second part of the book
comprises a catalogue
where the description of
the current Hungarian
coins functioning as royal tender is given in chronological
order and according to types. The most characteristic, highly
typical coins were selected hopingly widely different both
in inscriptions and coats-of-arms. The appendix gives the
heraldic description and figure of the coats-of-arms or the
lexical data of the geographical territories appearing in the
legends and the coats-of-arms of the Hungarian coins. The
book closes with the pertaining list of literature, notes, list of
abbreviations used in the book and the name of index.

„Die Sammlung Stork mit ihrem einzigartigen Schwerpunkt
auf Geowissenschaften ist die bedeutendste numismatische
Schenkung, die das Landesmuseum jemals erhalten hat.“
Dr. Katja Lembke Direktorin des Niedersächsischen
Landesmuseums Hannover
Das Werk „Geowissenschaften im Spiegel von
Medaillen und Münzen“ von Gerd-Henrich Stork ist
durch die Zusammenarbeit der Gebiete Numismatik,
Geowissenschaften, Paläontologie und Biologie im Haus des
Landesmuseums Hannover entstanden – ein Paradebeispiel
für Interdisziplinarität.
G.-H. Stork schenkt seine über Jahrzehnte gesammelten
Medaillen
und
Münzen
dem
Niedersächsischen
Landesmuseum Hannover. Das begleitende Buch dazu ist
weit mehr als nur ein Sammlungskatalog. Es enthält über
4000 Stücke und soll auf die außerordentliche Vielfalt und
Vielgestaltigkeit aufmerksam machen.
Durch das umfangreich enthaltene Grundlagenwissen zu den
verschiedenen Themen und zu bedeutenden Persönlichkeiten
auf die Medaillen geprägt wurden erreicht das Buch
spannenden
Lesewert.
Es ist kein Lesebuch im
herkömmlichen
Sinn,
eher eine Enzyklopädie,
aus der sich jeder Leser
das herauspickt, was ihn
interessiert.
„Medaillen und Münzen
rund um das Thema
Geowissenschaften
sind
das Alleinstellungsmerkmal
der Sammlung Stork. Der
zeitliche und thematische
Bogen spannt sich z.
B. von antiken Münzen
auf
den
berühmten
Vulkanausbruch des Vesuvs
im Jahre 79 n. Chr. bis hin
zu modernen, aus rein

geprägten Pseudomünzen, von hochkarätigen Medaillen
der Renaissance und des Barock bis zu den ungezählten
neueren Gelegenheitsmedaillen.“

Obituaries
Jean-Pierre Callu (1929-2014)
Jean-Pierre Callu est décédé à Donville-les-Bains, dans
la Manche, le 29 août. Né à Paris le 23 octobre 1929,
élevé strictement dans un milieu catholique, éloigné
de Paris durant l’Occupation, il y reprend ses études
dès la Libération. Il entre à l’Ecole Normale Supérieure
en 1951 où il se liera d’amitié à Claude Nicolet (réunis
par leur intérêt pour l’histoire romaine et les cours de
Jean Bayet et William Seston), obtient l’agrégation
de lettres classiques en 1954, et devient membre de
l’Ecole Française de Rome de 1957 à 1959. A son
retour en France se déroulera une carrière universitaire
classique, assistant à Strasbourg (1959/60) et Paris
(1960-63), chargé de cours, maître de conférences
puis professeur à Rennes (1963-72), Paris-X-Nanterre
(1972-88), enfin la Sorbonne (1988-98). Depuis 1981,
il était également chargé d’une direction d’études
intitulée « histoire et littérature du Bas Empire » à
l’Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes IVe Section. Cette
direction hybride reflétait parfaitement l’équilibre
difficile que conciliait Jean-Pierre Callu, entre histoire
monétaire et histoire culturelle. Latiniste et ayant eu la
révélation du Bas-Empire, il s’intéressa, contrairement
à la volonté de Pierre Courcelle, au « vieux sénateur »
Symmaque, s’écartant, selon ses propres termes, de
« la partie vivante de la Renaissance théodosienne,
cette patristique annonciatrice des siècles chrétiens ».
Il va donc traduire et commenter les Lettres (Paris,
Les Belles Lettres, 4 vols., 1972-2002) et les Discours
(Paris, Les Belles Lettres, 2009) de ce « représentant
typique d’une classe encore puissante et consciente de
l’être, conservatrice, paternaliste… mais qui constituait
un rouage de première importance dans le système
politique de l’Empire tardif » (L. Cracco Ruggieri).
Jean-Pierre Callu donna également, avec Anne Gaden
et Olivier Desbordes, le premier tome de l’Histoire
Auguste (Paris, les Belles Lettres, 1992) ainsi que la
Correspondance de Gerbert d’Aurillac, pape de l’An mil
sous le nom de Sylvestre II, avec Pierre Riché (Paris, les
Belles Lettres, 1993). Mais, dès 1954, l’enseignement
de Jean Lafaurie à l’Ecole Pratique l’attira. Il était donc
« assis, entre deux chaises, sur le strapontin de la
numismatique, une simple science auxiliaire pour les
philologues et les historiens ». Son Genio Populi Romani
(295-316) : contribution à une histoire numismatique de
la Tétrarchie paru chez Champion en 1960, était très
novateur. La publication de sa thèse de doctorat, La
politique monétaire des empereurs romains de 238 à
311 (BEFAR 214, De Boccard, 1969) fut un événement,
et reste un livre essentiel. Monument exceptionnel
d’érudition, l’historien montrait « l’importance du IIIe
siècle comme phase de transition et de maturation des
transformations du IVe siècle » (L. Cracco Ruggieri),
s’intéressant au monnayage de bronze en Orient de
238 à 276 et tentant de dégager des indications sur le
volume des émissions, la circulation des espèces, les
systèmes métrologiques pour démontrer « combien
était alors facile la conversion entre les séries locales de
bronze et les multiples impériaux d’argent » (L. Cracco
Ruggieri).
Jean-Pierre Callu aimait fréquenter le Cabinet des médailles, « éprouvant le sentiment délicieux d’y faire une
visite », où les heures passaient vite avec « les dénombrements, les tabulations, les statistiques » et où les idées
pouvaient s’épanouir grâce à la majesté des lieux. Mais,
s’il avait pénétré les arcanes de la numismatique, il n’en
était pas devenu numismate pour autant. Ce serait lui
faire injure que de le ranger au nombre de ces spécialistes, scrutateurs
de petits disques
de métal, l’œil vissé
à leur loupe ou au
microscopique : les
typologues de Cabinet lui inspiraient
de la méfiance.
Pour
Jean-Pierre
Callu, la pièce individuelle, observable
et palpable, ne parle
pas ou, si elle le fait,
on aurait tort de
trop s’y fier. Il faut
accumuler des individus qui finissent
par s’intégrer dans
d’évidents regroupements,
additionner du morcelé
non significatif pour
faire transparaître
un sens, récolter
méthodiquement des exemplaires reclassés en séries,
mettre ainsi au jour des tendances générales, des directions lisibles, construire « le fait monétaire », sur lequel
s’échafaude la preuve patente ou logique. De la Politique monétaire à l’Or monnayé II paru en 1990 (Cahiers
Ernest-Babelon 3), en collaboration avec Xavier Loriot, la
démarche intellectuelle n’a pas varié. Il s’est toujours agi
d’étudier la vie de la monnaie une fois qu’elle a quitté
l’officine, de rétablir sa dynamique, de lire son histoire là
où les textes se taisent. Jean-Pierre Callu avait très rapi-

dement saisi que la numismatique ne devait pas s’enfermer sur elle-même, mais s’ouvrir à des voies nouvelles.
Si les tentatives d’évaluation des volumes de production,
ce qu’il appelait la métanumismatique, ont rencontré en
lui une certaine méfiance, l’approche statistique ne l’a
en revanche pas rebuté. Il a également perçu très vite
l’intérêt extraordinaire des méthodes d’analyse nucléaire
appliquées dans le domaine de la numismatique.
L’Institut ajouta la dernière touche à son cursus
exemplaire. Il fut élu à l’Académie des Inscriptions et
Belles-Lettres le 10 février 1995 au siège de Pierre Marot.
Des Journées internationales d’histoire monétaire autour
de son œuvre furent organisées en octobre 2000 et les
communications publiées dans la Revue Numismatique
2003. Un recueil de ses écrits est paru en 2010 sous le
titre La monnaie dans l’Antiquité tardive. Trente-quatre
études de 1972 à 2002 (Edipuglia, Bari).
Jean-Pierre Callu se définissait comme un chercheur
isolé, un « amateur de bonne volonté ». Son contact
pouvait intimider, tant sa culture et son savoir étaient
immenses. Mais sa « courtoisie, même distanciée, n’était
pas trop décourageante » (C. Nicolet).
Retenons l’enseignement fondamental de ses écrits, dont
il disait modestement qu’il subsistait dans certains « des
éléments à ne pas irrémédiablement écarter du débat »,
son invitation à faire preuve d’imagination et à toujours
chercher des voies novatrices. Son dernier écrit, dont il
n’a pas vu la parution dans la Revue Numismatique 2014,
p. 21-29, qui rendait hommage à l’œuvre monumentale
de P. Bastien, revient sur cette incompréhension
supposée, mais pas tout à fait erronée, entre numismates
et historiens. Jusqu’au bout, Jean-Pierre Callu aura
souhaité une exploitation du matériel numismatique selon
des interrogations complémentaires de celles propres de
la numismatique.
Michel Amandry
crassest surname in London; in truth, it is local, from a
place named for beautiful oaks. Out of respect for his
family’s origins in the Polish gentry he purchased the
lordship of the manor of Parkbury in Hertfordshire, Hitchin
hundred, Kimpton parish.
After the War he studied in Dublin, and worked as a
design engineer. Following retirement he gained a PhD in
political science at the Polish University in Exile in London
(1992). He had a special love of Japanese, but his hopedfor international congress in Japan did not come about.
He did, however, attend the international numismatic
congress in Copenhagen, 1967, already compiling a
numismatic reference, which was published in time for
the next congress: International Numismatic Directory,
1973 (London, 1973), including a useful ‘Who’s who’
section on pp. 224-60.
He collected and sold books, especially on numismatics
and heraldry, and donated a valuable library to the
Wyższa Szkoła Biznesu in Lublin. His interest in
bookplates led to his commissioning of two ex-libris from
Bernhard Kuhlmann of Delmenhorst, one naming him as
a petrochemical engineer, and a second showing him as
a parachutist. He also collected wine labels, and latterly
hand-bells.
Above all Jan collected coins and medals of John Paul
II, and displayed them in at least two exhibitions at the
Polish Institute and Sikorski Museum (London): XV years
of Pope John Paul II’s pontificate in world numismatics
and graphics (1993), and XXV years of the pontificate of
Pope John Paul II in world numismatics and photography
(2003), under the patronage of the Duke of Norfolk. He
published a large medal showing him with the Pope. Jan
was the founder and for many years president of the John
Paul II Foundation in London. He visited Rome in 2011 to
support the Polish Pope’s canonisation, but died before
it came to pass.

Jan Janus Krasnodębski (1930-2013)
It is dismaying to discover that Jan Krasnodębski died
on 11 May 2013, without any report to the numismatic
community. He lived alone in West London, having a sister
in Birmingham, a brother in Chicago, and a niece in Kiev,
consequently nobody was in touch with his numismatic
contacts.
Jan was born in Natalin, eastern Poland, on 12 January
1930, and was interested in numismatics from the age
of 7. The Russian invasion propelled his mother and his
siblings to the Soviet Union 1940-42, Iran 1942-44, and
(by walking) to Palestine, where he joined the Polish Army
Cadet School (1944-47). Thence he went to England in
1947, attaining the rank of Army Captain after parachute
training. The exploits of his uncle Zdzisław Krasnodębski
in command of the Kościuszko Squadron were recounted
by Lynne Olson & Stanley Cloud in A Question of Honor
(2003; For your Freedom and ours in the UK). Once he
suffered the indignity of being phoned by some popular
radio programme to be congratulated on bearing the
