A Latin antiquarian treatise on engraved gems and coins put to Christian use, written by the Roman collector Francesco Vettori, printed by Rocco Bernabò in Rome in 1732 and addressed to the Etruscan Academy of Cortona. The plates reproduce gems, seals and coin faces as small circles and ovals filled with dense parallel hatching, showing bearded heads of Christ, standing deities, shrines and Greek lettering, plus ribboned seal pendants useful as medallion frames, spot ornaments and monogram grounds.
