Sant Pere de Rodes' Hidden Treasure Trove: Gold and Silver Coins of the Early 16th Century. Study which complements the catalogue-guide of the MNAC's exhibition of the coins composing Sant Pere de Rodes' hidden treasure, discovered the year 1989. The volume opens with articles on the archaeological and historical context in which to situate this treasure trove; a careful analysis of both the gold and silver issues; the manufacture and minting of coins and the historical and numismatic interpretations of this trove. At the close of the volume, cataloguing of the gold and silver issues, a complete and careful bibliography and the English translation of the texts. Without doubt this book, together with “The Treasures of Sant Pere de Rodes. Coins, Commerce and Art in the Early 16th Century”, is the best study done to date on the gold and silver pieces found at the monastery of Sant Pere de Rodes.
