Does anyone know of a good reference book for German coins...specifically one in English. I would prefer a book that covers the 20th century as that is what interests me. I'm looking for fairly basic information: metal content, size, basic value, mintage numbers and some basic info. Essentially...a Red Book type of reference. Does anything like this exist out there? I have a Krause World Coin Catalog and i find it is just a bit too general for me. Any German coin reference book would be something I would consider...but I can't read German. It needs to be in English.
Hi Camaro, I used this site to find that type of information. I don't know any books besides the Krause German Coin book. http://sammler.com/coins/coinvalues.htm#German Also: Just making sure you knew there is a Krause book specifically for German coins: http://www.amazon.com/Standard-Catalog-German-Coins-Douglas/dp/0873416449
