<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 1584209, member: 39&quot;]What about this one then? <a href="http://www.krausebooks.com/collecting-world-coins-13th-ed" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.krausebooks.com/collecting-world-coins-13th-ed" rel="nofollow">http://www.krausebooks.com/collecting-world-coins-13th-ed</a> Seems to be about &quot;circulating world coins&quot;; I don&#039;t have it though.</p><p><br /></p><p>In fact, such a catalog would not be very useful for me. Yes, I often complain about NCLT made for collectors only, and tend to not collect such pieces any more. (Such principles are flexible of course. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> ) My problem is that there is no strict dividing line. Here in the euro area, for example, we have so-called &quot;collector coins&quot; which, unlike the circulation coins and commemorative €2 coins, are legal tender in the issuing member state only. Even those that are issued at face do not actually circulate anywhere. So should they be in a separate catalog?</p><p><br /></p><p>What I think would be helpful, however, is some information in a coin catalog about whether a coin was issued at face, or surcharged only. With older coins that info may be difficult to find, but that should not keep catalog editors from trying. Then let all coins from some period of time (say, 20th century) be in one catalog, but with &quot;F&quot; and &quot;S&quot; notes ...</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
