"The contents of Head's Coins of the Ancients [i.e. A guide to the principal gold and silver coins of the ancients] have been so greatly changed in the form which the work now assumes, that it would have been misleading to allow the title-page to stand unaltered. But, in piety to the memory of a distinguished scholar, his name has been retained. [...] In the selection, arrangement, and description of the coins, and in the revision of the proofs, I have had throughout the valuable assistance of Mr. Stanley Robinson of the Department of Coins and Medals"--Preface, G.F. Hill, 1932.
