After his marvelous "Catalogue of Elymaean Coinage", published in 2007, PieterAnne van't Haaff started working on a catalogue of the Persis Coinage.

After Susan Tyler-Smith's article "A parcel of Persis drachms, half drachms andobols," in the Numismatic Chronicle (2004), and Statthalter Rebellen Könige - DieMünzen aus Persepolis von Alexander dem Großen zu den Sasaniden (Munich:Staatliche Münzsammlung, 2008) by Dietrich O. Klose and Wilhelm Müseler,everyone was anticipating the book on Persis coinage by Pieter Anne van't Haaff.

In 2010, his book with the title "Catalogue of Persis Coinage, Ca. 280 B.C. - A.D.228 and with the subtitle "34 Kings of 5 dynasties that ruled in Iran for 500 years",was submitted to CNG.

In the first part of the book, the author deals with the characteristics of the coinageand in the second part offers an impressive catalog of 660 coin types. The coinage istreated chronologically: (1) the Frataraka dynasty, (2) the rulers under Seleucid and(3) afterwards Parthian sovereignty to end with the (4) Vadfradad IV and the (5)Shapur dynasty. This corpus became his magnum opus!

Unfortunately the publication date repeatedly slipped, then the author passed away inDecember, 2018. CNG has now released the original manuscript and plans topublish an updated second edition with Scott VanHorn as co-author.
