I have need of a definitive guide for Eastern Asian Coins, as well as Russian, and Australian Coins. Date range 1800-2010.

The Standard Catalog of World Coins is woefully inadequate for Chinese Coins from the late 1800's to early 1900's. Fuzzy pictures, images that don't match the year, and price guides that are miles from market value make this guide a little suspect.

Any suggestions? I'm particularly interested in China, Russia, Australia, India.

Thank you for your help.

Yes, I'm a newbie, but I'm reading and searching coins 3 hours every night. I don't know much, but I do know this...I don't know much.

Thank you for the bibliography of coin reference books. I have need of a very defininitive guide for Chinese Coins. The Standard Catalog of World Coins is woefully inadequate. Blurry pictures, images that don't match the year, and prices that are not close to market value add up to a frustrating experience.

What books do you recommend for Chinese, Russian, and other East Asian Countries?

I also love the Australian coins. Thoughts and recommendations would be appreciated for at least 10 minutes.
