[Numismatics] Velazquez, Luis José, Marques de Valdeflores (1722-1772): Congeturas sobre las medallas de los reyes Godos, y Suevos de España. En Malaga: en la oficina de Francisco Martinez de Aguilar 1759.

Nice copy of a catalogue of Visigothic and Suebian coins, arranged according to the kings issuing them, with observations, and a chronology of the kings at end. The book was officially published as a part two to a book of annals of the Spanish nation, issued in the same year, but is catalogued separately, and held to be a separate work. (It is not marked either as a part two on the title-page). The author (1722-1772) was a famous and important antiquarian.
