Numismata Hellenica: A Catalogue of Greek Coins

Leake catalogues his extensive Greek coin collection with geographical organization, concise descriptions, historical notes, and supplementary material. The work became a frequently cited nineteenth-century reference and is valuable for early provenances, rare civic types, and the evolution of mint attributions. Researchers should note collection names, weights, and plate references, since many Leake coins later entered institutional collections and can sometimes be identified through these details.

Because the work predates much of the modern archaeological, die-study, epigraphic, and provenance evidence, verify dates, mint or ruler assignments, legend readings, authenticity, and current specimen locations against current corpora and databases.
