The line drawings of most obverse types mean that the legend is clear and readable in the book, and it makes a great aid to identification, as does the alphabetical list of emperors/empresses in the back of the book. This book includes an identification guide for republican coins, instructions on cleaning Roman silver coins and a list of Roman mint town mintmarks.

Just as good as the Base metal version - Rated
For people with unidentified Roman Silver coins, this book is just as useful as the similar book by the same author on Roman Base metal coins.
