<p>[QUOTE=&quot;robinjojo, post: 8261817, member: 110226&quot;]My main go-to book on these and other coins cataloged by Davenport is an old reference published by Krause in 1982.&nbsp; It is compact and quite comprehensive, but with few photos.&nbsp; The prices listed in the book are mostly way out of date, but they do provide dates of mintage by mint and any rare dates for a given mint, including those that produced lion daalders.</p><p><br /></p><p>The book is out of print, but I do see that a few copies are available on Amazon:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Standard-Crowns-1484-1968-cataloged-Davenport/dp/0873410629" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.amazon.com/Standard-Crowns-1484-1968-cataloged-Davenport/dp/0873410629" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/Standard-Crowns-1484-1968-cataloged-Davenport/dp/0873410629</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Now the book shown on Amazon is priced at $171.82 which is way too high, I think.&nbsp; But, if you select &quot;collectable&quot; I see there is one available at $49.50. I don&#039;t know anything about the seller, who seems to be based in Texas.&nbsp; The book in the images has worn covers, but I guess the pages are in good condition.</p><p><br /></p><p>This book was reprinted in 1983, but I cannot find any currently available.</p><p><br /></p><p>Krause also has new catalogs on world crowns and talers, but only going back to 1601.&nbsp; The old 1982 reference includes crowns produced as far back as 1500.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s a link to the newer reference, again on Amazon:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Standard-Catalog-World-Crowns-Talers/dp/0873412117" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.amazon.com/Standard-Catalog-World-Crowns-Talers/dp/0873412117" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/Standard-Catalog-World-Crowns-Talers/dp/0873412117</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
