1.0 out of 5 stars Current book NOT current with paper money information, February 12, 2004

By	James B Sutton (Glendale, AZ United States) - See all my reviews

Though there are several errors in this 2004 edition, the most outstanding and noticeable item is what's NOT included. There is absolutely no listing for any bills past 1995 issues! If the newer, larger portrait bills intrigued you enough to start collecting -- you'll find nothing about them. Whether you're a beginning collector or been at it a while, this book is a must SKIP. Two days after I bought it and made some initial notations in it, I tossed it into the trash. If I could give "0" stars or a negative, I would. Before you buy any guide or reference book, look through it to be sure it has what you're looking for!

2.0 out of 5 stars Too many errors as to organization of contents: confusing!, December 4, 2003

By	Gerald T. Pety (Ypsilanti, MI United States) - See all my reviews

Although, it is complete it is not very organized and the page numbers do correspond with the contents. If you are used to Friedberg's catalog of US Currency or some of the old Donlon catalogs you will not like this. Really needed to be proof read before printing. Had I known this I would not have purchased it!
