A note from BCD: The author of this very rare book on Medieval French coins had his collection sold by Rollin & Feuardent and three other experts in a five day Drouot sale in March 1882, less than a year after his death. The auction catalogue (not offered here) lists only two Greek coins, a Philip II gold stater and a rare Syracuse bronze, both described as FDC, in contrast to eleven Roman and many more French feudal and Mediaeval coins.
