This book is the only comprehensive listing of bank note issues available, along with its sister books: Volume 1 for specialized issues and Vol 3 for newer issues. It would not be possible to be an informed collector without these volumes. They inlcude photos of most of the notes, estimated values in three different grades as well as an excellent introduction to the hobby with collecting tips, grading information, an invitation to join the International Bank Note Society, etc.

The book is of a great use not only for a bank note collector, but also for educational purposes, as it includes a brief history of every listed country, written numerals, dating systems even exchange rates of various countries. Paper money images serve as a great educational material about world's famous people, buildings, scenes from history and many more. Everyone may even use it for identifying various paper notes. It is definitely yours the best old paper money source in the world. While there is no better, believe me, there is none better yet, this book is the best and latest source for your paper money and educational needs.

Great source for banknotes collectors amature as weel as advance.The only thing which is luck is more grading valuations.

Ohne Frage ist der Katalog das Standartwerk schlechthin. Gerne hätte ich 5 Sterne gegeben, leider lässt die Qualität etwas zu wünschen übrig. Knicke, unsauberer Blattschnitt und viel Staub - dafür gabs einen Stern abzug.
Ein weiter geht dafür verloren, das mann es immernoch nicht geschafft hat den Katalog ins deutsche zu übersetzen und durch Farbbilder aufzuwerten (was gerade bei Banknoten natürlich besonders schön wäre !).
