Con esta muestra se pretende dar a conocer las monedas tradicionales africanas, reivindicar su lugar en la historia del dinero y de los sistemas monetarios y, a través de ellas, comprender mejor a los pueblos que las emplearon. Las monedas son un reflejo de la sociedad, las creencias, la cultura, la economia, e incluso del desarrollo tecnologico de cada uno de ellos. Tradicionalmente los pueblos africanos emplearon como dinero sal, cacao, conchas, asi como tejidos, armas, herramientas, joyas..., productos naturales o manufacturas a los que se les reconocia un valor por el propio material, pero tambien por su utilidad y por el simbolismo o significado que tenian dentro de cada sociedad. A ello se sumara con el tiempo un interes estetico, lo que los convierte ademas en objetos bellos y deseables que poco a poco adquirian mas valor de intercambio y perdian a su vez el uso inicial para el que fueron creados. Refinando sus formas, se aumentaba su valor.

The premier form of Roman money since the time of the Second Punic War (218-201 B.C.), coins were vital to the success of Roman state finances, taxation, markets, and commerce beyond the frontiers. Yet until now, the economic and social history of Rome has been written independently of numismatic studies, which detail such technical information as weight standards, mint output, hoards, and finds at archaeological sites. In Coinage in the Roman Economy, 300 B.C. to A.D. 700, noted classicist and numismatist Kenneth W. Harl brings together these two fields in the first comprehensive history of how Roman coins were minted and used. Drawing on literary and documentary sources as well as on current methods of metallurgical study and statistical analysis of coins from archaeological sites, Harl presents a sweeping overview of a system of coinage in use for more than a millennium. Challenging much recent scholarship, he emphasizes the important role played by coins in the overseas expansion of the Roman Republic during the second century B.C., in imperial inflationary policies during the third and fourth centuries A.D., and in the dissolution of the Roman Mediterranean order in the seventh century A.D. He also offers the first region-by-region analysis of prices and wages throughout Roman history with reference to the changing buying power of the major circulating denominations. And he shows how the seldom-studied provincial, civic, and imitative coinages were in fact important components of Roman currency. Richly illustrated with photographic reproductions of nearly three hundred specimens, Coinage in the Roman Economy offers a significant contribution to Roman economic history. Itwill be of interest to scholars and students of classical antiquity and the Middle Ages, as well as to professional and amateur numismatists.

Se trata del primer trabajo monográfico sobre las acuñaciones áureas de la España medieval, y en concreto de los reinos de Castilla y León. Arranca con el representativo dinar de Baeza de Alfonso VII, de mediados del siglo XII, y termina con las acuñaciones en oro de los pretendientes a la corona castellana, a fines del siglo XV, pasando por supuesto por todo el resto de acuñaciones en oro labradas durante la alta y la baja Edad Media. El libro no se limita a las consabidas breves descripciones de piezas de esta clase de trabajos, pues, entre otros aspectos, profundiza en los historicos, politicos, sociales, economicos, artisticos y simbolicos inherentes a las monedas; en este caso, de oro. Aparte de satisfacer las necesidades hacendisticas del reino, aunque fueron las que menos circularon, las emisiones en oro eran las que en definitiva daban el necesario prestigio que todo monarca medieval pretendia al hacer uso de esta importante regalia. Con mas de 150 fotografias a color y blanco/negro, el libro esta organizado como un catalogo en el que se muestran todas las emisiones en oro de los reinos de Castilla y Leon. Las piezas se presentan correlativamente mediante la diferenciacion de tipos, incluyendo todas la variables conocidas en cuanto a marcas de ceca o talleres de acuñacion, si ha lugar, y dentro de cada uno de los reinados en que estas piezas se emiten. Todo ello, se acompaña de un extenso estudio de cada uno de los tipos que se exponen. Por ultimo, se incluye una tabla de los precios actuales de los tipos descritos.
