By the IAPN Prize-winning author of The Coins of the English East India Company

The Coinage of the Bombay Presidency: A study of the Records of the EIC is a companion volume to Dr Stevens’ widely acclaimed catalogue of the Presidency Series of Coins of the East India Company. The latest book contains numerous extracts from the records, relating them to the known coins and showing why and when they were issued. It also contains much information about the working of the mint and the people who undertook that work.

The Coinage of the Bombay Presidency will be of interest, not only to numismatists, but also historians interested in the development of multinational companies and working practices.
