Biographical Dictionary of Medallists, Coin-Gem, and Seal engravers, Mintmasters, &c. Ancient and Modern, by Leonard Forrer:

 

8 volumes

 

Published by A. H. Baldwin & A. G. van der Dussen

Should be listed as BDM under separate volumes (BDM I, BDM II, etc). This catalog is for mostly French and Belgian medals that yet have no ref #s.

Is the numbering continuous among volumes?

Is this really item related reference catalog?

Always look on the bright side of life!

@Jarcek  It is non continuous.

@Indomini16 With many many medals referring to the catalog I cannot see how it would not apply here.

 

An example: N#358536 BDM III 462

Would it be better to list the 8 volumes seperatly or due to the numbering being continuous to have it as just one combined listing?

Then for the last example given the reference BDM would be selected and III 462 as the reference nr imputed.

As far as I understand they are non continuous and the volumes would have to be listed separately like RIC

Thank you, I've went ahead and added some #s which were all approved :)

 

Is there a way we can list all volumes together in one single page? (like with the Mitchner rechenpfennig cat.)
