Nicholas Gervase Rhodes (26 May 1946–7 July 2011) was a British numismatist who specialised in the coinages of Asia. ==Biography== Rhodes grew up in London, where he went to school until college. He moved to Cambridge University to study for a Master's degree in mathematics. Rhodes qualified as an actuary and spent his working life as one. However, coins were his special interest since childhood. He began collecting Asian coins in 1962, and developed a specialist knowledge of the coins of the Himalayan region from Kashmir and Ladakh in the west, through Nepal, Tibet and Bhutan, to Assam and the Hindu states of northeast India. He was an important figure in the Royal Numismatic Society, where he served as Honorary Treasurer (1973–2002), and was elected Honorary Fellow of the RNS in 2002. He was also a founding member of the Oriental Numismatic Society, and was Secretary General of the ONS from 1997. He was also Treasurer of the Bhutan Society in London. In recognition of his knowledge of Nepalese coins, the Nepal Numismatic Society presented an Honorary Membership to Rhodes in 2004.
