Excerpt from The Coin Collector
The numismatic products of every part of Europe exhibit their own peculiar features of interest and claims to attention; but a careful and leisurely colla tion of one with another shews us more and more how much in this respect the modems owe to the ancients, or how little the world has acquired in its riper life which it had not learned and forgotten in its youth. In the sort of coup-(feed which our volume affords, that great lesson is readable in many and many a place.
