KM-XVII As the first edition of XVII century catalog it have many gaps and weak areas. China is satisfactory, though it is a bit awkward in its arrangement. It does a good job of covering world Gold Coins and Silver Crowns, since Krause Publications has done books in this area, but it leaves out a lot of the low denomination silver and copper coins, which are the ones that collectors are most likely to encounter.
Joel Anderson ($59.50)

PN 2 vols, over 1000 pages and a wealth of detail.
