Excerpt from The Coin Collector's Manual, or Guide to the Numismatic Student in the Formation of a Cabinet of Coins, Vol. 2 of 2: Comprising an Historical and Critical Account of the Origin and Progress of Coinage, From the Earliest Period to the Fall of the Roman Empire The extent of this work and the great similarity which pervades the coins of these emperors prevent the possibility of describing examples of each reign, especially as the style of art falls off very rapidly after Septimus, and a dry, hard manner of execution becomes general.* These princes all died untimely deaths after reigns of a few months each, the last two only excepted, who reigned respectively nearly five years. Of Maximus, the son of Maximus, slain with his father, there are coins, though rare, of nearly every class except those of the Alexandrian mint. The denarii and the large and middle bronze are. The most common, but all are rare. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
