A complete set of this most important series of monographs on historical medals, particularly those of the Renaissance. Authors include George F. Hill, Georg Habich, Max Bernhart, Victor Tourneur, Eugen Demole, Robert Forrer, E.W. Braun, Leonard Forrer, and other major numismatists of the period. Clain-Stefanelli 367. Grierson 258. Modesti 81: “La rivista, riccamente illustrata, comprende una serie di articoli sulle medaglie, soprattutto rinascimentali. Tra I collaboratori, si segnalano i maggiori numismatici: Hill, Habich, Forrer ecc. che la resero, a quel tempo, la più prestigiosa rivista tedesca—e forse europea!—di medaglistica. È sicuramente opera indispensabile, proprio per la ricchezza e la varietà dei temi e l’autorevolezza degli autore.” Ex Kolbe & Fanning Sale 170, lot 188; ex John Hoskins Library.
