This 1548 Italian book by Antonio Zantani, with plates by Enea Vico, reproduces Roman imperial coins and reverses with brief imperial biographies, made for antiquarians and collectors of classical medals. Its pages are grids of circular coin designs in engraved line, showing emperors' profiles, seated and standing allegorical figures, temples, altars and inscribed legends, offering a designer a dense catalogue of classical emblem and roundel motifs arranged in strict symmetrical layouts.
