<p>[QUOTE=&quot;satootoko, post: 35263, member: 669&quot;]The Standard Catalog of World Coins by Krause &amp; Mishler is a set of telephone book-sized volumes covering the 17th, 18th, 19th, and 20/21st Centuries.&nbsp; The general reference &quot;Krause&quot; usually means the current volume (2005 is 32nd Ed.), and other volumes are usually referred to by their century.</p><p><br /></p><p>The current edition is updated annually, the others every several years.&nbsp; Older editions (except for the 30th Ed. current book, which should be avoided) can often be found on EBay, or at Amazon or Barnes &amp; Noble used book sections, and unless you need information on the most recent years, or the most up-to-date pricing, the older editions are perfectly usable.&nbsp; Krause values are iffy at best, as they are known to be very low in some areas, very high in others, and about right in some.</p><p><br /></p><p>Krause is an invaluable resource for world coins.&nbsp; Along with detailed information on coins, including their size, weight, composition, precious metal content, and mint and mintage information there are numerous aids to identification, a chart of dating characters in various languages, and on and on and on.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
