Volume I, which is now out of print). The ISBN is

"The Testimonia Numaria project aims to collect and
evaluate ancient Greek and Roman texts relating to ancient
Greek and Roman coinage. Two volumes have been published,
Testimonia Numaria Volume I (1993) which contains 928 Greek
and Latin texts together with translations into English,
and Testimonia Numaria Volume II (2007), which contains
forty-nine additional texts, commentaries on all the texts,
a bibliography and an index. A third volume, Testimonia
Numaria Romana, is in preparation. This will present and
comment on texts relating to Roman coinage up to the
