Krause help

Due to my limited focus of collecting, I have opted not to buy anymore Krause catalogs, and instead I am using the Mandic catalog of Yugoslavian coinage, and sticking it out with 2002 Krause. Apparently, sometime after 2002, Krause has modified the listings for the Serbia 1 dinar coins of 1915. Could someone with a 2005 or 2006 please tell me what Krause lists (which I believe are wrong, based on what the Mandic catalog lists).

    According to Mandic's catalog (published by the Serbian Numismatic Society):

    the standard issue for the 1915 (Paris issues) are coin alignment (the earlier dated issues were minted in Kremnica & Vienna in medal alignment), with & without the designer's name, and there exists "specimens" in medal alignment with the designer's name. this would make KM#25.3 & 25.4 as the standard issue, KM#25.1 as the "specimen", and no mention of the KM#25.2
