Tall 4to, later full tan morocco; front cover paneled, lettered and decorated in gilt; spine with five raised bands, lettered and decorated in gilt; decorative endpapers. xxxii, 221, (1) pages; 8 mounted lithographic text figures of coins; 7 engraved plates of coins.

Babelon 199: “The current Keeper of the Imperial Collection, Friedrich Kenner.. compiled the catalogue of the Saint-Florian collection (adjacent to Ens), commissioned to celebrate the eight-hundredth anniversary of the foundation of the monastery (August 1871). We know from Kenner’s catalogue that the collection comprises some 3,540 Greek and 9,000 Roman coins.”
