The gigantic task of gathering data for this book demanded not only the requisite numismatic knowledge, but also a maximum of perseverance. Author-compiler William D. Craig met those requirements with admirable skill and ability. An attorney by profession, Craig first gained numismatic recognition through his book, Germanic Coinages, long a standard reference in its field.
The first edition of Coins of the World 1750-1850 represented a pioneering achievement unparalleled in numismatic research. Eagerly awaited by collectors the world over, it received immediate acceptance because of the tremendous scope and clarity of its coverage—a century of coinage noted for its abundance and complexity.
Several years of preparation have gone into this revision to make the presentation and listings as complete and explicit as possible. The author has worked closely with some of the world's foremost numismatic scholars to carry out his plans for continual improvement. Both collector and researcher will find this second edition a handy and invaluable source of historical as weil as numismatic information.
