Recenzii
'... essential reading for all those interested in how coins are actually used by people in their daily lives' - David Yoon, American Numismatic Society (ANS Magazine, 4/2018)
‘These material culture perspectives from the numismatic community make great strides not only in elucidation the human dynamic behind ritual coin deposition, but also in demonstrating the fruitfulness of a theoretically engaged approach.’ - Jane Kershaw, British Numismatic Journal 2019
