[.ca] Standard Catalog of World Coins 1901-Present (ISBN 0873499875)

I use KM numbers to help organize the collection:
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 meet al those needs.
