From Kroisos to Karia

This dual language (English-Turkish) descriptive catalogue accompanies an exhibition of the private numismatic collection of Muharrem Kayhan. The collection contains a number of early examples from the Anatolian kingdom of Lydia dating to the late 7th century BC, through to the spread of Anatolian coins until the death of Alexander the Great. Each section of this catalogue contains a commentary on the historical and technological context and contains a list of examples, with photographs at actual-size, at the back. The photographs, and in particular the close-ups, are exemplary.
