Coins, Artists, and Tyrants -
Syracuse in the Time of the Peloponnesian War.
New York 2017 (Numismatic Studies 33). 372 Seiten, 27 Tafeln mit 321 Münzabb.
Ute Wartenberg, Editor, Orla Mulholland, Translator. With a biographical sketch of Lauri O. Tudeer by Tuuka Talvio.
Coins, Artists, and Tyrants is a fully revised translation of Lauri O. Tudeer’s book Die Tetradrachmenprägung von Syrakus in der Periode der signierenden Künstler, in which the coinage of Syracuse of the period of the last decades of the fifth century is interpreted in the light of modern scholarship.
A die-study of over 1500 coins, of which 321 are illustrated with obverse and reverse, helps numismatists, both academics and collectors, to better understand one of the most important series of Greek coinage of the fifth century BC.
