<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2903299, member: 19463&quot;]The multivolume (current) Sear has <u>many</u> times as many listings as the one volume old book but both used numbers starting with one.&nbsp; There is no relation between the numbers.&nbsp; No book has all the types.&nbsp; Some make a good effort but new things are discovered regularly.&nbsp; A lot will depend on what you call a difference worth cataloging.&nbsp; Cohen made a very usable catalog by ignoring mintmarks and listing this alphabetically.&nbsp; Of course that fails to teach much about matters we consider important today.&nbsp; Other books have other quirks.&nbsp; Buy books; read books; study books; learn to use books --- don&#039;t worship them. </p><p><a href="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/book.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/book.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/book.html</a></p><p>I really should add to my reviews page but I&#039;m lazy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
