2009 INTERNATIONAL NUMISMATIC CONGRESS - NUMISMATIC RESEARCH SURVEY

E-Sylum subscriber Professor Walter R. Bloom, Honorary Associate
(Numismatics) of the Department of Maritime Archaeology at the Western
Australian Maritime Museum writes: "I have been invited to write three
sections for the Survey of Numismatic Research for the 2009 International
Numismatic Congress (Glasgow), this being a selective summary of the
more important numismatic publications appearing during the period 1
January 2002 to 31 December 2007.

"The purpose of the Survey is to provide a critical commentary on
recent work. It is not intended to be exhaustive, but as well as
covering the principal works, it should also indicate the general
directions of thought during the period under consideration. The
Survey has an audience that is much wider than the world of numismatic
scholarship: it should also be accessible to historians, archaeologists
and collectors.

"The sections I have been asked to cover are:

Medieval/Modern Numismatics:
 Coins and banknotes of Australia, New Zealand and Oceania
Medals: Australia, New Zealand and Oceania
Oriental Numismatics: Ethnographic currency of Oceania

"Relevant publications on Mints and numismatic museums in this area
of the world would also be of interest. In exceptional circumstances,
publications from 2001 that didn't appear in the 2003 Survey of
Numismatic Research could also be included."
