NEW BOOK: 2000 YEARS OF MONEY IN ESTONIAA June 28, 2018 CoinsWeekly article alerted me to the publication of a new book on the numismatics of Estonia. Here's
a Google translation of the book description from the publisher's site, plus some sample pages. -Editor
For the first time, the work brings to the reader the collection of Estonian coinage in all its diversity, from the money that was cast on behalf of the Roman emperors to souvenir and commemorative coins issued to the 100th anniversary of the Republic of Estonia. Among them there are Viking-era treasures, medieval money-laundering in the centers of Old Livonia, local coins under Swedish and Polish rule, monetary affairs in the tsarist and pre-war Estonia, foreign signs of the years of occupation, and reborn Estonian kroon. This is not only a handbook for the collector-numismatist, but also, and above all, a tool for both the commonplace of the past and for the professional historian, the orientation of the past few generations of money in the world. The book contains more than 400 illustrations and a list of recommended literature from which more in-depth information can be extracted.   ISBN 9789949624225 For more information, or to order, see: To read the CoinsWeekly article, see:  Wayne Homren, Editor The Numismatic Bibliomania Society is a non-profit organization promoting numismatic literature.
