And a very inexpensive way to add to one's numismatic library. Catalogs often contain information that you can find no where else. They can contain accurate census information, recent auction records, rarity ratings, as well as basic historical info. But they can do more than that, they also often expose you to coins that you previously knew nothing about, and that can open all sorts of new doors for you. Lead you down paths and in directions that you may never have traveled otherwise.</p><p><br /></p><p>So I've always urged everyone, get your hands on all the auction catalogs you can, and keep them, don't just throw them away.
