5.0 out of 5 stars
The only book of its kind and an outstanding one.,
By David Welsh (Goleta, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ancient Coin Reference Reviews (Paperback)
Dennis Kroh has really made a contribution to numismatics with this work. As an experienced dealer in ancient coins, he knows that all reference books are not created equal. Some are outstanding. Others are good. A few are poor and then there are the real disasters, filled with inaccurate and misleading information. Dennis gives us the insider's point of view in this well organized and indexed volume, which lists virtually all the reference works that you will find used by major auction houses and many that you would never have heard of without his book. He also tells you how much they should sell for based on his extensive experience in numismatic literature sales. I personally have made a bible of this book in assembling my $30,000 numismatic library. Buy it first and read it before buying ANYTHING! Dave Welsh Professional Numismatist
