ONLINE TRANSLATION:  BALKAN COINAGE

  Dave Surber writes: "My partners and I have produced a
  translation of the Nikola Moushmov's 1912 Bulgarian classic,
  "Ancient Coins of the Balkan Peninsula and Coins of the
  Bulgarian Monarchs", and have put it online at
  http://www.ancientcoinart.com/moushmov.html

  It covers ancient Dacia, Moesia, Thrace and Macedonia, plus
  medieval Bulgarian coins.   There are a total of 7460
  numbered types, plus 68 original plates.  It remains a very
  important reference today, as there are many types unlisted
  in the major references.  (For comparison of comprehensiveness,
  in Moushmov's listings for Geta from Nikopolis, there are 43
  types; SNG Copenhagen lists only one.)

  The original plates are being augmented by the insertion of
  examples from the WildWinds DataBank and the
  AncientCoinArt.com inventory, and it is planned for the online
  work to continue to grow, enhanced by continuing additions."
