KRAUSE PUBLICATIONS OFFERS WORLD COIN STANDARD CATALOGS ON DVD

In his Thursday blog entry Tom Michael of Numismatic News discussed
Krause Publications' recent publication of its Standard Catalogs on
computer discs.

"At the ANA this year Krause Publications released a special three
volume set of the 19th, 20th and 21st Century volumes of the Standard
Catalog of World Coins as a three disc DVD set. This caused a good
deal of excitement, as one might have expected.

"There have been plenty of people asking for the Standard Catalog on
Disc over the years, but it was some recent developments regarding
database development which finally led us to be able to provide
this long awaited product.

"The set features the most recent editions of the three catalogs,
each of which was produced within the past eight months or less.
The book covers can be seen on the right front of the DVD case shown
here. Each disc presents one volume in it's original page format, so
it's just like scanning the pages of the catalog, but without the
girth of a heavy book in your lap or on your desk.

"Total page count is about 3,760 and total images are roughly 82,750.
You can enlarge the images pretty well also, as these are direct
from our files, without any second generation degrading."
