David: I was unaware of the PCGS Grading Standards book that you referred to in a previous post on this Q&A thread.

Would you please provide more info about this publication:

1) Is it available for reference online?
2) Is it available in print?
3) Cost for the print version?

I am however familiar with "How to Grade U.S. Coins" by Jim Halperin , which I feel is a great public service contribution to the coin colelcting hobby.

Thanks in advance for your reply.

    The PCGS grading book was published in 1998. In my opinion, it was a very well-written book (John Dannreuther did most of the writting.) It did win both the Numismatic Literary Guild and Professional Numismatists Guild "Book of the Year" awards for 1998.

    The book is currently out of print, but a new edition will be published this year.
