Craig Greenbaum of Houston TX forwarded this notice of a new periodical on Asian numismatics. Thanks! -Editor

The primary language of the publication is French but English articles are also published.

I asked Craig Greenbaum for more background, and he adds:

The person in charge of the Revue Numismatique is Francois Joyaux. He collects Asian coins and has written quite a few articles in French periodicals about these coins. He and some other collectors decided to establish a revue to make it easier to publish essays. I met Francois through the Zeno.ru website and we are now email buddies.

The Revue invites collectors to submit original articles for publication. They can be in English but of course the membership is mostly French readers. I collect mostly Vietnamese cast coins and I know Howard Daniel. I travel to Vietnam and when our schedules coincide we meet together for a day in Ho Chi Minh City.

I might add that if anyone is interested, the National Diet Library of Japan has well over 200 Japanese coin books on line. The books are in Japanese of course, but may have some value to collectors who specialize in Japanese coins. The earliest book dates to the 1690's. The URL is http://dl.ndl.go.jp/#classic

They even have an old copy of the Chinese classic Quan Zhi by Zun Hong (1120-1174). The book in the library dates to 1603. The URL is http://dl.ndl.go.jp/info:ndljp/pid/2538845

If any readers are interested in more information about books available at the National Diet Library, please let me know.
