I have a bunch of coins from overseas and I need to know where I can find info on them. Are there good websites or books that are better than others? There is Japan, Italy, France and some I have no clue of. If I pictured them all (like I was for awhile) you guys would get annoyed with me so I figure if I can look them up myself I can post pictures if I find something good. BTW- don't get too worked up, they are all circulated...image

    Try the Standard Catalog of World Coins (by Krause), which can be found at your local library, usually. It is a great reference for identifying your coins.

    By the way, post your pictures. There are a couple of human Krause books who frequent this site. They know who they are.image

    Looks like the darkside has captured another one. image

    Feel free to post any of your pictures, especially the ones you can't identify a country for.

    Meanwhile, here are some useful links regarding Japanese coins.
