Book Description
Excerpt from A Dictionary of Numismatic Names, Their Official and Popular Designations The divisions and multiples of a standard are usually to be found under the name of the particular coin which constitutes the monetary unit; the only exceptions to this rule are where the larger or smaller denomination has so incorporated itself into numismatic history as to merit a separate description. Thus the terms Quarter Dollar, Medio Real, etc., are to be found under the substantive and not the adjective, whereas in the case of Tetradrachm, Quadrupla, etc., the opposite rule has been adopted, and these names are retained.

Book Description
The term numismatic derives from the Latin numismatis, genitive of numisma, variant of non-same («currency»). Numismatics is the science that studies currencies and elements formally or functionally related to them; that is to say, all the objects that by their external appearance resemble them, such as medals or tokens, as well as all those that perform a monetary function in ancient and modern societies (paper money, traditional money, etc.), and those related to its manufacture, official control and use (scales, dumbbells and weights). Numismatics played an important role in the development of historical studies, especially in the birth of Archeology. When dealing only with paper money, the term exclusive notafilia is usually preferred. The numismatics is known since the times of the Roman Empire, although it can not be known with certainty at what moment it began as a social phenomenon (collectors). Numismatics as a science begins timidly in the nineteenth century, a time of modernization and appreciation as such of all sciences, as we understand them today. This science can give invaluable testimony of the exchanges and economy of the peoples, as well as their political, geographical, religious history...
