Museum Mazzuchellianum, Seu Numismata Virorum Doctrina Praestantium: Quae Apud Jo. Mariam Comitem Mazzuchellum Brixiae Servantur
Museum Mazzuchellianum is a 1763 numismatic catalogue compiled by Piero Antonio Gaetani and edited by Giammaria Mazzuchelli, cataloguing the coin and medal collection of Count Mazzuchelli in Brescia for scholars of learned men. Its plates show engraved medallions arranged in numbered groups, with portrait busts in profile on one side and allegorical reverses on the other. A designer might draw on the tidy paired-medal layouts, the laurelled profile portraits and the Latin legends that circle the roundels for classical, numismatic styling.
