The coins described from the Museum collection are indicated by the letters MB. those from private collections by the names of the respective owners in italic capitals. The numbers within brackets are references to the figures engraved in the present work. The author has to apologize for rather a long list of errata, they are such as could scarcely have been discovered by any care of the printer, and for which he must therefore be himself considered responsible ; those who have had most experience of the dull and wearisome labour of correcting the press, especially in a work dealing so extensively in references and figures as the present, will be most easily appeased, and will be most ready to accept of the apology of the author.
