Review Quotes: Keith Rutter has left us a comprehensive and detailed account of the coinage produced within the Achaemenid Empire, not just the 'royal' coinage, but also the numerous and diverse issues by other authorities. Scholarly and measured, yet readable, his explorations into this complex project add a weighty addition to his legacy.--Ian Carradice, University of St Andrews
