Abstract: Raccolta di notizie su Tito Labineo. Includes
- Quintus Labienus Imperator Parthicus.
- Medaglia emessa in memoria di Q. Labienus

Studi storici su Titus Labieno, tribuno della plebe e legato di Cesare in Gallia. Usciti nei primi del secolo in lingua inglese in pubblicazioni diverse, essi sono stati qui raccolti e tradotti da Antonio Morello. Egli stesso fa una relazione sulla figura del La-bieno, sui suoi rapporti con la probabile sua città natale, la antica Cingulum (Cin-goli), nel Piceno, sulle medaglie emesse nel corso dei secoli per celebrare il personaggio. Quindi tratta di Quinto Labieno (figlio di Titus), generale romano alleato dei Parti e nemico dei cesariani, che fu proclamato imperatore dai suoi uomini e batté moneta per finanziare le sue campagne. Interessante questo ultimo studio numismatico. [Publisher]

Manuel de numismatique orientale de l'antiquité et du moyen-âge, vol. 1 (1923)
Chicago: Obol International, 1979, x+480 p.
Abstract: A general survey with good line illustrations of Ancient coinages, from early Persian through India & Central Asia. Something like Marsden, but with ruler lists, transcribed legends, design element closeups, etc. G. F. Hill says (in his article on Persian coins in A Survey of Persian Art) that J. de Morgan's Manuel de Numismatique Orientale is "unfortunately very inaccurate." Pages 125-171 cover the Parthian coins. Pages 289-331 list the Sasanian coins. Clain-Stefinelli also lists a 1971 Chicago reprint.

Ancient Persian numismatics: Elymais (1930)
New York: Attic Books, 1976, 62 p.
Abstract: Good drawings with transliterated legends.

"A Greek coin hoard from Susiana" (1965)
Acta Archæologica, 1965, vol. 36, p. 127-156.
Abstract: The hoard, found in 1958 or 1959, consists of about 200 silver tetradrachms, 124 of which are listed. The burial date, ca. 140 B.C., has implications for eastern Seleucid issues down to this date. Some of these coins are ascribed to a new mint at Antiochia, later known as Charax Spasinou. See the review by W. Schwabacher in Hamburger Beitrage sur Numismatik, vol. 7, no. 21 (1967), pp. 282-283.

"The Parthian Coinage of Seleucia on the Tigris c.90-55 B.C." (1980)
Numismatic Chronicle, 1980, tome/ser. 7, vol. 20, p. 33-47.
Abstract: The tetradrachm coinage of Seleucia on the Tigris is arranged in a chronological sequence by purely numismatic criteria. It is arguued that the evidence derived from coins is more important than the sparse written evidence for reconstructing the so-called Parthian "Dark Age," the period between the death of Mithradates II and the firm establishment of Orodes II as king of the Parthian empire. The attribution to different rulers is still a matter of speculation. [Author]

Using numismatic criteria only, Mørkholm reached a different conclusion from A. Simonetta [QT 7 (1978), 95-119] about the number and sequence of kings at Seleucia on the Tigris during the Parthian "dark age", c. 90 B.C. and c. 55 B.C., excluding within his chronological sequence both Vonones and Pacorus. He acknowledges that the attribution of coins to different rulers is still much a matter of speculation, but argues that the written evidence for the period is so fragmentary that the most reliable documents are the coins.

Abstract: A study is made of the coins in circulation in Armenia from the 5th century B.C. to the 3rd century A.D. Achaemenid, early Armenian (Orontid dynasty), and Macedonian coins are mentioned. The coinage of the Artaxiads is investigated and Bedoukian's classification (ANSMN 14) is adopted. The Roman coins of this period withthe legends ARMENIA and ARMENIACUS are discussed along with some Parthia coins relating to Armenia. [Paul D. Bedoukian]
 
Monetnye kladi Armenii. I. [Coin hoards of Armenia I] (1973)
Erevan: Armenian Academy of Sciences, 1973, 184 p.
Abstract: In Armenian with Russian and English summaries. A hoard from the village of Sarnakunk (Inventory of Greek Coin Hoards No. 1746) discovered in Armenia in 1945, containing silver coins of the Roman Republic, Seleucia, Parthia, cities of Phoenicia, Armenia, Cappadocia, Pontus, Alexander the Great and some cistophori, is described. Hitherto unknown coins from this hoard, which now totals 372 issues, are discussed. The latest coin dates from 31 B.C.

History and coin finds in Armenia : Antiquity (2000)
In: Series: Inventory of coin finds in Armenia, Part I, Moneta 17
2000, 184 p.
Abstract: Contains a table of Parthain coin finds in Armenia notable for the small quantities found; almost all finds listed are single drachms or bronzes, no tetradrachms. However, the range of rulers represented by the finds is extensive including 18 rulers from Mithradates I to Vologases III. [ECDH]

Khatchatur Mousheghian prepared a publication of hoards and site finds from Armenia. Completed, with new studies, this documentation is now published. In this book are published catalogues of hoards: Artashat (70 BC and 59 BC); Armenia (55 BC); Artik (45 BC); Parakar (38 BC); Sarnakounk (25 BC); Tovuz (25 BC); Aparan (2 BC); Gurmi and Artashat (1st c. BC); Echmiadzin (175); Garni (192); Oshakan (3rd c.); Yerevan (5th c.). A list of site finds in Armenia (coins from 4th c. BC to 5th c. AD) and a list of Armenian coin finds out of the actual Republic of Armenia are given.

Two studies complete the general analysis of coin circulation. One is devoted to hoarding in the first Century BC (with Sarnakounk hoard) and the second is devoted to the study of second Century denarii hoards in the Roman Empire (with Echmiadzin and Garni hoards). These two studies summarize all the new studies about silver coin hoards and give new interpretations of this kind of coin circulation. [Publisher]
