A view into the world of 19th century coins!
Unparalleled in its coverage and exhaustive in detail, the Standard Catalog of World Coins, 1901-2000 offers the most comprehensive reference to 20th century coins on the market.
Reviewed by a team of experts from around the world, the 46th edition of this tradition-rich catalog offers a global overview of the most passionately collected and popular area of numismatics. Based on the early work of numismatic giants Chester L. Krause, Clifford Mishler, and Colin R. Bruce II, the Standard Catalog is the reference of choice for any coin collector, researcher, or dealer.
With precious metal prices stable, collectible coin values have settled at reasonable levels, prompting experienced collectors to seek out the highest grade coins available. The continued interest in exceptional high-grade coins is reflected in the latest edition of the catalogue, which now offers increasingly more and better defined values.
Extensive and easy to manage, the catalog is organized by country and each listing provides:

Clear descriptions and invaluable details.
Updated values in up to five degrees of conservation.
Additionally, listings for coins minted in silver, gold, platinum and palladium offer key information, including:
