Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A detailed presentation of the iconic Naseby Cup that illuminates the Victorian vessel's extraordinary numismatic importance and contextualizes the circumstances surrounding its creation One of the most exceptional numismatic objects in the world, the Naseby Cup in the Yale University Art Gallery was commissioned by John and Mary Frances Fitzgerald, Lord and Lady of the Manor at Naseby, in Northamptonshire, England. It commemorates the Battle of Naseby on June 14, 1645, during which the forces of the English Parliament, led by Oliver Cromwell and Sir Thomas Fairfax, defeated the Royalist army of King Charles I. Crafted by silversmiths Charles Reily and George Storer and completed in 1839, the intricately decorated Victorian cup stands more than two feet tall and features 72 coins, counters, and medals from the English Civil War period (164251). Many of these numismatic pieces are extremely rare, such as a New England Shilling from 1652 and a copy of an original 1644 Oxford Crown of Charles I, which depicts the king on horseback and a view of the city. The cup is innovatively designed so that both the front and back of each piece are visible, one on the cup's exterior, one on its interior. Integrating numismatics into the larger study of both art and history, this publication offers an in-depth look at the Naseby Cup and its many layers of meaning.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The expansion of Rome into northwestern Europe brought with it the presence and the increased usage of coinage both within the empire and in the Barbaricum. Coin Finds and Monetization in the Roman Northwest presents a study of coin finds and the monetary economy of northwestern continental Europe over much of the Roman period (c. 50 bc-ad 274). One of the largest datasets of coin finds ever assembled is deployed to analyze distribution patterns and fluctuations over time and space. It is clear that the Roman state made a concerted effort to manage coinage and the monetary economy during its rule in northwestern Europe, to the extent that was possible. Regionality is, however, a key feature of the coined monetary economy that resulted from deliberate action or the state's inability to respond to demand, underscoring how centralized and empire-wide factors had an impact in the study region. Publication of this book has been aided by a grant from the von Bothmer Publication Fund of the Archaeological Institute of America. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Der Naseby-Pokal in der Yale University Art Gallery ist eines der außergewöhnlichsten numismatischen Objekte der Welt. Er wurde von John und Mary Frances Fitzgerald, Lord und Lady of the Manor in Naseby, in Northamptonshire, England, in Auftrag gegeben. Er erinnert an die Schlacht von Naseby am 14. Juni 1645, in der die Truppen des englischen Parlaments unter der Führung von Oliver Cromwell und Sir Thomas Fairfax die royalistische Armee von König Charles I. besiegten. Der von den Silberschmieden Charles Reily und George Storer gefertigte und 1839 fertig gestellte, aufwendig verzierte viktorianische Pokal ist über zwei Fuß hoch und zeigt 72 Münzen, Geldstücke und Medaillen aus der Zeit des Englischen Bürgerkriegs (1642-51). Viele dieser numismatischen Stücke sind äußerst selten, wie z. B. ein Neu-England-Schilling aus dem Jahr 1652 und eine Kopie einer originalen Oxford-Krone von Karl I. aus dem Jahr 1644, die den König hoch zu Ross und eine Ansicht der Stadt zeigt. Der Becher ist innovativ gestaltet, so dass sowohl die Vorder- als auch die Rückseite jedes Stücks zu sehen sind, eine auf der Außenseite des Bechers, eine auf seiner Innenseite. Diese Publikation, die die Numismatik in das Studium von Kunst und Geschichte einbezieht, bietet einen detaillierten Einblick in den Naseby-Pokal und seine vielschichtige Bedeutung. Paperback, englischer Text, viele farbige Fotos und Gemäldereproduktionen. 144 Seiten.
