The new opus of the SÉNA Research and Works collection is now available. This magnificent hardback book made up of 220 color pages in glossy paper contains the papers presented during the colloquium organized jointly by the Société d’études numismatiques et archéologiques (SÉNA) and the GNCP (Groupe Numismatique du Comtat et de Provence) in May 2017 in Avignon (France).
Content
Dominique Hollard and Marie-Laure Le Brazidec, Monnaies et Monnayages en Avignon entre Provence et Papauté. Recherches et Travaux de la Société d’Études Numismatiques et Archéologiques (RTSÉNA) 10. Proceedings of the colloquium of May 25-28, 2017 at the Calvet Museum – Avignon. SÉNA, Paris 2022. France: 35 EUR, overseas: 45 EUR.
The cover, in the colors of the city of Avignon (yellow and red), represents a Provençal cross Toulouse surrounded by coins and medals that you will find studied in this volume. Fifteen articles in French will be presented there, giving pride of place to the collections of the Calvet museum, but also to the Avignon treasure of obols from Marseille, to the Merovingian coins of Arles and Carolingian coins from Uzès, to the Provençal issues of the counts of Toulouse in the Middle Age, or token coins of the Fair of Beaucaire are represented there. The memory of the late numismatist Pierre-Carlo Vian will remind many numismatists of the various subjects studied by the latter, whether in the Annales du GNCP or in the Gazette provençale. The texts of this RT SENA 10 Avignon are published by Dominique Hollard and Marie-Laure Le Brazidec with the help of Karim Meziane. Marie-Laure Le Brazidec actively participated in this conference as well as in the provision of the museum’s collections from the first inventories to the creation of the Calvet Foundation website.
