In 1738 publisher Martin Schagen got the publishing rights and issued the present copy. He could now reset the entire work and print it in elegant quarto format, add the Johannes Stradanus suite of portraits, extra suite of coin illustrations, and allow the plates the freedom to remain bound separately from the text. The edition was printed on handsome laid paper with ample margins, and the strikes of the plates are remarkably more beautiful than these of their predecessors. I-1 .

Title-page printed in red and black, with illustrated device. Woodcut initials, shoulder notes; few leaves bit marginally soiled, old repair for a tear to one leaf without loss. HARDCOVER, bound in contemporary full calf, beautifully rebacked and re-cornered, spine with raised bands, gilt fleuron stamped in four compartments, gilt lettering in remainder, all edges sprinkled. Overall an excellent copy with fine, strong strikes of plates, by far the cleanest and brightest we have ever came across. ~ First published in French in 1555. Du Choul's Classical work on ancient Roman coinage, religion, and army. First translated into Latin in 1685, that edition incorporated a frontispiece and a folding table. Both title-page and frontispiece were dated 1685, the title-page in Roman, MDCLXXXV. Demand for the book proved high and in 1686, a completely identical edition was printed, using the same plates and letterpress. This edition, with the title-page newly dated MDCLXXXVI, sometimes included the frontispiece, with the old "1685", as well as a folding table, sometime not, as is the case here with the present copy. The wonderful engravings are based on the woodcuts that illustrated the original French version, attributed to Pierre Esckrih. They were considered the best numismatic illustrations of the 16th century. Lipsius p. 82. A beautiful copy. C-3 .

His publishing career began in 1557, with the publication of Vivae Imagines, and ended in 1579, when he published the first edition of the "Thesaurus rei antiquariae Huberrimus". Much of his work, however, was left unpublished, and it was Jacob de Bie of Antwerp who gathered and published it, including the present edition of the "Thesaurus". Lipsius 152. Brunet II, p. 1653.
