To this day Van Loon is still the standard reference on over 3000 historical medals from 1556 to 1716.
A quote by John W. Adams in the December 2009 issue of the MCA Advisory: “the work is as relevant now as it was when published... As a reference work, ‘van Loon’ deserves its reputation for meticulous [engravings], accurate legends (and translations), well-described devices and copious historical support. A numismatic library that does not have a set of van Loon is not, simply put, a numismatic library.”
