satootoko Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 Many public libraries have the Standard Catalog of World Coins by Krause and Mishler in their reference section. The volume covering 1901-date is almost always available at any large public library, or possibly for inter-library loan if yours does not have it. If any of your coins are dated 1801-1900 they would be listed in the 18th Century edition which is less commonly found in libraries. Good luck.

Beijim Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 Thanks for clarifying what "KM" means to those of us who don't work with World coins very much! Beijim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aethelred Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 Do they publish Krause on CD yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wihlborg Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 Aethelred, I have never heard anything about the Krause catalogs being published on CD, but I think this would be a great idea. Did you actually hear that they might be doing this? John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmarguli Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 I heard something about this about two years ago. I don't think they ever went ahead with it. I'm not even sure if it was a serious plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wihlborg Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 Too bad. It seems like a good idea. Pop the CD into your computer and do a search on whatever coin you want info on. I would buy it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satootoko Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 I was given the name michaet@krause.com at the last Long Beach show as the person to alert about errors found in the 2003 catalog. I've sent him a link to this thread with the comment that it is a link to a great suggestion from the NGC World Coin Forum. Who knows - mighty oaks, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbirde56 Posted April 6, 2003 Share Posted April 6, 2003 Here's a recent thread on the 'Krause on CD' question: http://forums.collectors.com/messageview.cfm?catid=6&threadid=180801 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wihlborg Posted April 6, 2003 Share Posted April 6, 2003 Thanks for the update Brad. I agree with you, I think they may be worried that people will copy the CD and give or sell them to others. It's a shame though, as publishing the Krause catalogs on CD is a great idea. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
