This is the first major work to attempt a comprehensive study of the Arab-Sasanian silver coinage since Walker's 1941 Catalogue of the British Museum collection. Itincludes the latest research on the subject, both historical (chapters 1-4) and numismatic (chapters 5-15). All the coins (over 1,600), both silver drachms and copper fulus, inthe Johnson collection are illustrated on the excellent plates. Where the Johnson collection does not have a specimen of an important coin an example is illustrated from anothersource, making this a truly important work.
