@Spence I mean does it have a lot of Bulgarian Imitations of byzantine trachys? That's mainly what I need it for.

@Spence Are those the only pages that cover imitations? Also, it has photos of the coins, right?

@Spence Is that an English copy of the book or is that just some English in the Bulgarian?

Quote: Are those the only pages that cover imitations? After the Trachys, Bulgaria moved to silver coins. These are covered too. Quote: Also, it has photos of the coins, right? Yes (on the plates). Quote: Is that an English copy of the book or is that just some English in the Bulgarian? There is the one summary page and then the plate legends in English. Everything else is Bulgarian.

@Spence Did you mean the trachys are covered or the silver coins? Sorry just very tired.
Trachys are mainly what I need the book for.

Both. I think that "Skyphata" = Scyphate = Trachy

Well, that is really a personal decision, but I am happy to tell you my philosophy. I would much rather have "the book" then not if I have more than a few coins in a particular field. For me the threshold is quite low.
By the way, that is the same price as I paid for mine in 2016.

@Spence I am just debating whether or not I should buy it. Unless you can think of a better book for Bulgarian trachys.
