Kushan Coins and History: A Type Catalogue of Kushan, Kushano-Sasanian andKidarite Hun Coins Based on the Collection of the British Museum, The BritishMuseum, London 2025 (ISBN 9780861591916), 870 pages in two volumes.

Professor Joe Cribb, Hebei Normal University, and his former colleague Robert Bracey,curator of Asian money at the British Museum, have just published their study of Kushan andrelated coins. This book is the culmination of twenty years of research.

The book catalogues all the Kushan, Kushano-Sasanian and Kidarite coins in theBritish Museum, presented in the context of a history of the rulers who issued them and themonetary systems they established. It is designed as a type corpus of the series, so alongsidethe British Museum coins, the authors also list all the known types of these coins not in theBritish Museum, drawing on public and private collections from across the world. Thecatalogue is arranged by ruler, mint and phase of issue to illustrate the structure of thecoinage system. The catalogue listing is prefaced by an introduction to the history andcoinage of the Kushan kings and their successors and to the history of the British Museumcollection.

This is the first full presentation of the series since Robert Göbl's System undChronologie der Mu¨nzpra¨gung des Kus?a¯nreiches (Vienna 1984). It is not intended to replacethat volume which still contains vital information, but to present the coinage in a moreaccessible format for archaeologists, historians, and coins collectors and dealers.
