A 1605 scholarly treatise on money and coinage, written by Marquard Freher and printed at Ladenburg in Germany by Gothard Voegelin for learned readers of ancient Roman and early modern coinage. Its pictures are small black woodcut ornaments and a decorated initial letter, with dense scrollwork, acanthus-like leaves, and flourishes that a designer could borrow for borders, monograms, or vintage ornament panels.
