"Standard Catalog of" World Paper Money Modern Issues: 1961 - Present

great

most interesting prompt delivery

The `Standard Catalog...' series of books are comprehensive in their listing and presentation of world coins/paper money; I can see how these volumes are invaluable to collectors. I am not a collector however and purchased the volumes on paper money simply to admire the artistry put into their creation. I was greatly disappointed (given my purpose) as the paper is of telephone book quality and all coin/note images inside are small, black & white and grany (the only colour printing is on the cover). Even as a reference for collectors, the presentation quality could be much better. For a beautifully illustrated guide to world coinage, I would instead recommend `The World Encyclopedia of Coins and Coin Collecting' by James Mackay.

Love the book, it was perfect! I would buy more from this seller. This book has so much information, it has helped me identify a few items I had untitled. The CD is awesome too, now I have the book on my laptop as well.

コレクターはもとより、外貨を扱う業務に従事する人にもお薦めです。また海外旅行に頻繁に出かける人にも有益な情報を与えてくれるものです。しかし、一部の紙幣の写真、図版が違うものが掲示されているので注意です。前回の版と比べて若干改善されているようですが、まだ間違いが見られます。出版元には早急な改善を求めたいですね。今回の版からDVDも添付されており、使い勝手がよくなりました。

Great catalog at a great price

I was able to trace a lot of names of my bank notes and countries which was a great help.

Lots of information here. I found some money I was looking for and some moneyI did not find. You would think as big as this book is it would be fairly comprehensivebut it is not. That's why Im giving it only 4 stars. Also the pages are black and white andkind of like news print so you miss some of the beautiful details of the money. Of coursecolor and gloss would be perfect, but you probably would not be able to afford it becauseof the expense. It's good, but not great.
