This new edition provides an expanded guide to identifying, grading, and assessing value for each coin, including an international date conversion chart, an international numeral systems chart, a cross-referenced guide to coin denominations, and a foreign exchange table. Countries are alphabetically listed with historic-geographic reference. The coins are then listed in ascending denomination.
Chester L. Krause started Krause Publications in 1952 with the first issue of Numismatic News. In 1972, he and Clifford Mishler coauthored Standard Catalog of[registered] World Coins. This hobby standard launched the beginning of book publishing at Krause Publications, sparking the flame that would help create the world's largest hobby and collectibles publisher. Since 1952, Chet has been a steadfast figure in the numismatic world. Clifford Mishler joined the company as a member of the numismatic editorial staff in 1962 and retired as chairman of the board four decades. In 1984, the American Numismatic Association recognized lifelong dedication to numismatics and presented its highest honor to him, the Farran Zerbe Memorial Award. Employed at Krause Publications since 1975, Colin R. Bruce II oversees production of all numismatic catalogue titles relating to foreign coins and paper money. He has earned 16 awards from the Numismatic Literary Guild for his work.
