   The author’s knowledge is evident, but the book could benefit from better organization. Chapters feel disjointed at times. Still contains helpful information.

   A must-have for numismatists! Very insightful and well-researched. Some images are a little unclear. But I really appreciate the scope of work.

   A dense but rewarding read. The first volume is a great start, but can be overwhelming for newcomers. I am eager to see the following volumes.

   A great book! It gives a deep understanding of the era, but can be a little verbose. I still think it is a very good resource.

   A solid academic work. It’s comprehensive, but not the most accessible for casual readers. The price point is also a bit high.

    Excellent scholarship! A deep dive into numismatics, though I wish there were more visual aids in the book. Overall, it’s a valuable contribution.

    It is detailed and informative, but can be hard to follow without a strong background. Not very beginner friendly and some claims need more proof.

    Interesting content, but the writing style is a bit dry. I found myself having to reread sections to fully grasp the concepts. Still informative though.
