Rating 5 out of 5 - Getting Off to a Good Start and More
This is a publication of note. Highly informative for the beginner or seasoned collector there is a certain lure for these magnificent looking coins and abundant information on them. I will have to admit that I was certainly intrigued by this publication and spent several hours rummaging through the information contain herein. I have collected coins on and off for years and this was a good place to start and jump back in to that rewarding and enriching hobby.

Rating 5 out of 5 - Great Gift
My dad is an avid coin collector and loved this Catalog, could also be reviewed as the "Coin Collector's Bible".
Rating 5 out of 5 - WORTH ITs WEIGHT
This is a good book. Do you collect this era? If so, go for it. The photos are outstanding. This is a quality puplication.
Rating 5 out of 5 - As my collection slowly moves back in time
I need a guide so I just do not blindly pay big bucks for cute pictures. There are a lot of good guides and some more specific on particular eras and locations such as Westphalia. But as you do a coin search you are bound to run across something you are not familiar with and need a guide. This guide is a great place to start; it is easy to navigate and gives cursory information on particular locations and times surrounding the coin's production.

Keeping in mind that this is just a guide, there are holes and the coins are not displayed in color. On the other hand the coins shown are in actual size; size is hard to translate form internet pictures.

With all the electronic references today it is nice to have something tactile, static and transportable. This book meets all those needs.
