<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SorenCoins, post: 9604150, member: 73708&quot;]Hello all!</p><p><br /></p><p>I have noticed that some coins are often listed by their &quot;Y&quot; catalog numbers rather than their &quot;KM&quot; numbers on Numista. I have noticed this mostly on coins from Asian countries.</p><p><br /></p><p>For instance, this coin: <a href="https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces966.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces966.html" rel="nofollow">https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces966.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>This 70-111 (1981-2022) Taiwan 1 New Dollar is listed as Y-551, its catalog number referring to <i>A Catalog of Modern World Coins</i> by Richard S. Yeoman, and no KM number is listed. Upon looking up the coin further--such as in NGC&#039;s World Coin Lookup--I could not find any reference to its KM number, only the Y number.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have not ever read Yeoman&#039;s book, but I assume it covers all countries just like Krause and Mishler&#039;s catalog. I do not have a copy of Krause and Mishler&#039;s catalog on hand.</p><p><br /></p><p>Does anyone know why this coin does not seem to have a KM number? Does Krause and Mishler&#039;s <i>Standard Catalog of World Coins </i>not list this coin? Is Yeoman&#039;s catalog considered a better reference for coins of some Asian countries?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks,</p><p><br /></p><p>SorenCoins[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
