Its imply the fact ot os so large that makes any specialty completely impossible. Anyone familiar with US coinage can take a look at Krause and see how high level it is, and missing a ton of detail. Same with any series, KM guides are great if I get a german 1933 coin to see what it is, but if I want to specialize in those coins I really need to get further, specialize information.</p><p><br /></p><p>To me, most peopel in world coinage has KM, it is the baseline. If I want to make money, or get a good deal, I need to know MORE than what is in KM or else I will just be going around paying KM prices, just like everyone else. This is where a good specialist book comes in, pointing out rare varieties, mintages that were located years later, etc etc. This is the info that pays for itself in a good book. I was just saying everyone should have KM, but you should ALSO have a specialized book for what you are interested in.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
