Download or read book Dinars and Dirhams written by Michael Bates and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2005-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Nasser D. Khalili Collection, with it's more than 8,500 coins, ranks as one of the world's largest collections in the field of Islamic numismatics. The coins, include no less than 500 unpublished types in terms of date and mint. While these occur in the better-known categories, such as Abbasid dirhams, in some cases they represent completely new series, such as those of the emirs of 'Athbar in Arabia and the Najahid rulers of Zabid in Yemen. This volume also contains the largest group of Arab and Latin bilingual coins from North Africa. This catalogue, which is by the two leading specialists in the subject, is the first of two volumes devoted to the Collection's numismatic holdings and covers the first Islamic coins and the early medieval period. It provides three types of information: the obverse and reverse of each coin are illustrated in color; catalogue entries provide the requisite statistical information; and the essays at the beginning of each section place the coins in their historical context. Like the other 25 volumes in the series, which will make the entire Collection available to a wider public, it combines lavish production values with academic excellence.

Download or read book Gold Coins of the World 10th edition written by Arthur & Ira Friedberg and published by Coin & Currency Institute. This book was released on 2023-12-20 with total page 854 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tenth edition of Gold Coins of the World expands on its predecessor, digging more deeply into new areas of collector interest, and expanding many sections. From the coins of Ancient Greece, Rome, and the Byzantine Empire, and from Afghanistan through Zanzibar, it includes the addition of many new discoveries for dozens of countries. From the 384 pages of the 1958 edition, the work has expanded to 852 pages, which have been completely revised and updated. The authors have listed more than 22,000 coin types, which are illustrated with more than 8,500 photos—now, for the first time, each one of them in color. Each country’s section includes tables of weight and fineness. The market valuations are extensively revised to reflect both the higher price of gold as well as the skyrocketing demand for numismatic rarities. Valuations are now provided, for the first time, in up to three states of preservation. Many of the prices, especially for great rarities and coins in higher grades, have at least doubled. In fact, as collectors recognize the scarcity of coins in the highest states of preservation, the premium for such coins relative to lower-graded ones is escalating beyond traditional proportions. The coinage of India and the Islamic world, long dismissed by western collectors as difficult to decipher, unimportant, and lacking in value, is now the subject of intense interest, and has shown some of the most dramatic increases of all. The reader will also find a useful directory of the world’s leading gold-coin dealers and auction houses. For the numismatist, banker, economist, historian, or institution of higher learning, the tenth edition of Gold Coins of the World is a book for every library, public and private.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "After delving into the problems of the present monetary system, it then argues how a return to a gold payment system - like the Islamic dinar - could solve many of the woes of today's economic system. A return to such a system is not only desirable from the economic, political, social and religious perspectives, but also urgent in the present era of globalisation and impending world recession, besides providing a conducive environment for Islamic economics, banking and finance to flourish."

Download or read book The Boundaries of Europe written by Pietro Rossi and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2015-04-24 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Europe’s boundaries have mainly been shaped by cultural, religious, and political conceptions rather than by geography. This volume of bilingual essays from renowned European scholars outlines the transformation of Europe’s boundaries from the fall of the ancient world to the age of decolonization, or the end of the explicit endeavor to “Europeanize” the world.From the decline of the Roman Empire to the polycentrism of today’s world, the essays span such aspects as the confrontation of Christian Europe with Islam and the changing role of the Mediterranean from “mare nostrum” to a frontier between nations. Scandinavia, eastern Europe and the Atlantic are also analyzed as boundaries in the context of exploration, migratory movements, cultural exchanges, and war. The Boundaries of Europe, edited by Pietro Rossi, is the first installment in the ALLEA book series Discourses on Intellectual Europe, which seeks to explore the question of an intrinsic or quintessential European identity in light of the rising skepticism towards Europe as an integrated cultural and intellectual region.
