Medieval European Coinage The Iberian Peninsula

This volume of Medieval European Coinage is the first English-language survey to bring the latest research on the coinage of Spain and Portugal c.1000-1500 to an international audience. A major work of reference by leading numismatic experts, the volume provides an authoritative and up-to-date account of the coinages of Aragon, Catalonia, Castile, Leon, Navarre and Portugal, which have rarely been studied together. It considers how money circulated throughout the peninsula, offering new syntheses of the monetary history of the individual kingdoms, and includes an extensive catalogue of the Aragonese, Castilian, Catalan, Leonese, Navarrese and Portuguese coins in the collection of the Fitzwilliam Museum. This major contribution to the field will be a valuable point of reference for the study of medieval history, numismatics, and archaeology.

La numismàtica de l’Edat Antiga de la Península Ibérica gaudeix de nombrosos estudis parcials, alguns de gran qualitat, però mai s’havia publicat un catàleg general exhaustiu i científicament planejat, de la totalitat de les monedes emeses en aquesta llarga etapa històrica. L’obra s’enceta amb les emissions gregues al segle V abans de Crist i després d’estudiar les monedes d’arrel púnica, i les emissions ibèriques i romanes, es clou al segle V després de Crist amb les singulars emissions barcelonines de l’emperador rebel Màxim Tirà. L’obra es sustenta sobretot en els amplis treballs de referència de Leandre Villaronga, secundat en aquesta ocasió per l’expert especialista en moneda tarragonina, Jaume Benages. L’Arxiu Villaronga, amb més de 60.000 fitxes reunides al llarg de tota una vida ha estat el punt de partença de l’obra i l’ampli banc de dades que ha permès unes catalogacions, descripcions, ubicacions cronològiques, sistematització d’emissions i anàlisi de dades ponderals i rareses de la màxima qualitat. El llarg i fecund treball estudiós dels autors i el seu reconeixement internacional són una garantia de nivell immillorable d’aquest estudi exemplar.
