Nothing, for instance, is more common, or more distressing to the numismatist, than the division of a hoard of coins among various persons before they have been examined by an expert. This should be done even if the coins, to the inexperienced eye, appear to be all alike.
"Is there any way by which you can begin at what you think is the beginning?" asked the other. Ashton-Kirk took up the parcel which Fuller had laid at his elbow. "Here is one way," he answered. "Let us see where it leads us." He stripped off the wrapper, and the bayonet which had killed the numismatist was revealed, blood-clotted and ugly.
As an Indian symbol the Svastika cross can only be traced back as far as the fourth or fifth century B.C.; and its occurrence upon these and other relics of earlier ages and other lands, shows us that it is inaccurate and misleading to speak of it as "Indian." Schliemann quotes with approval Professor Max Muller's remarks to the effect that Mr. Thomas our distinguished Oriental numismatist

The son of the Landgrave became, himself, the Landgrave of Hesse-Cassel, and afterward Elector. He is also known as William the Ninth. He was a booklover, a numismatist, and a man of many gentle virtues.
"Then why don't you do it?" shouted the numismatist, who had completely lost his temper. "I didn't come here to act at an ambulance; but, since I must, do you take his head." I took his head, Madeleine walked in front, Jeanne behind. My uncle's vast proportions swayed between M. Charnot and myself. M. Charnot, who had skilfully gathered up the legs, looked like a hired pallbearer.
