Does anyone know when and by whom the first list of coin prices was compiled? For that matter, when did coin collecting become popular enough that one was needed?

Addendum: Before the early 20's collecting by date and mint was not popular and most people only collected by date so a complete listing before that time was probably not needed. In fact until 1893 there wasn't even a readily available list of even what dates and mintmarks were produced.
