If anyone wants/needs a 20th Century Krause catalog, we have a 2006 book (33rd edition) and a 2007 book (34th edition) to give away. I kindly ask that you pay for shipping ($4). PM me if interested (only one book per person). Given away on a first come, first serve basis. If you already have a 20th Century Krause, please don't ask for one (unless yours is really, really outdated)...would prefer for these to go to someone who doesn't have one at all.

Unfortunately, I've decided to hold on to my older catalog editions going forward. Why? Krause, in their infinite stupidity, keeps removing not only entire sections, but pictures and more importantly details, from individual listings.
Prime example: Tonight I was working on a bunch of coins to make available for sale, and was working on a few 1960-H Hong Kong dollars. The new Krause has 2 listings for that date, and the only difference I could find between the listings was that the second listing said "Edge: reeded."
Well, reeded as opposed to what? Looking at my coins, there is a security groove going through the middle of the edge, but on both sides of the groove, the edge is reeded.
I look in the 2006 Krause and the second listing said "Edge: reeded without security." Ok, well the extra 2 words tell me what I need to know.
That begs the question: why in the HELL did Krause change the listing? It's not like they gained lines of text on the page. It saved no space.
How many other bits of information have been "pruned" by noncollecting overzealous editors at Krause Publications?
They are really doing a crappy job maintaining these catalogs...
