4 HOW TO USE THIS CATALOG
HOW TO USE THIS CATALOG
This catalog series is designed to serve the needs of both the novice
and advanced collectors. It provides a comprehensive guide to over 100
years of world coinage. It is generally arranged so that persons with no
more than a basic knowledge of world history and a casual acquaintance
with coin collecting can consult it with confidence and ease. The following
explanations summarize the general practices used in preparing this cat-
alog's listings. However, because of specialized requirements, which
may vary by country and era, these must not be considered ironclad.
Where these standards have been set aside, appropriate notations of the
variations are incorporated in that particular listing.
ARRANGEMENT
Countries are arranged alphabetically. Political changes within a
country are arranged chronologically. In countries where Rulers are the
single most significant political entity, a chronological arrangement by
Ruler has been employed. Distinctive sub-geographic regions are listed
alphabetically following the country’s main listings. A few exceptions to
these rules may exist. Refer to the Country Index.
Diverse coinage types relating to fabrication methods, revaluations,
denomination systems, non-circulating categories and such have been
identified, separated and arranged in logical fashion. Chronological
arrangement is employed for most circulating coinage, i.e., Hammered
coinage will normally precede Milled coinage, monetary reforms will flow
in order of their institution. Non-circulating types such as Essais, Pieforts,
Patterns, Trial Strikes, Mint and Proof sets will follow the main listings.
Within a coinage type coins will be listed by denomination, from
smallest to largest. Numbered types within a denomination will be
ordered by their first date of issue.
Indonesia, and the Indian subcontinent coinages which surely are more
confusing in their vast array of Nagari, Sanskrit, Ahom, Assamese and
other local dialects found on the local issues of the Indian Princely
States. Although the task of identification on the more modern issues of
these lands is often eased by the added presence of Western alphabet
legends, a feature sometimes adopted as early as the late 19th Cen-
tury, for the earlier pieces it is often necessary for the uninitiated to
laboriously seek and find.
Except for the cruder issues, however, it will be found that certain
characteristics and symbols featured in addition to the predominant leg-
ends are typical on coins from a given country or group of countries.
The toughra monogram, for instance, occurs on some of the coins of
Afghanistan, Egypt, the Sudan, Pakistan, Turkey and other areas of the
late Ottoman Empire. A predominant design feature on the coins of
Nepal is the trident; while neighboring Tibet features a lotus blossom or
lion on many of their issues.
To assist in identification of the more difficult coins, we have assem-
bled the Instant Identifier and Monogram sections presented on the fol-
lowing pages. They are designed to provide a point of beginning for
collectors by allowing them to compare unidentified coins with photo-
graphic details from typical issues.
We also suggest reference to the Index of Coin Denominations pre-
sented here and also the comprehensive Country Index, where the
inscription will be found listed just as it appears on the coin for nations
using the Western alphabet.
DATING
Coin dating is the final basic attribution consideration. Here, the
problem can be more difficult because the reading of a coin date is sub-
ject not only to the vagaries of numeric styling, but to calendar varia-
tions caused by the observance of various religious eras or regal
periods from country to country, or even within a country. Here again,
with the exception of the sphere from North Africa through the Orient, it
will be found that most countries rely on Western date numerals and
Christian (AD) era reckoning, although in a few instances, coin dating
has been tied to the year of a reign or government. The Vatican, for
example dates its coinage according to the year of reign of the current
pope, in addition to the Christian-era date.
Countries in the Arabic sphere generally date their coins to the Muslim
era (AH), which commenced on July 16, 622 AD (Julian calendar), when
the prophet Mohammed fled from Mecca to Medina. As their calendar is
reckoned by the lunar year of 354 days, which is about three percent (pre-
cisely 2.98%) shorter than the Christian year, a formula is required to con-
vert AH dating to its Western equivalent. To convert an AH date to the
approximate AD date, subtract three percent of the AH date (round to the
closest whole number) from the AH date and add 622. A chart converting
all AH years from 1010 (July 2, 1601) to 1450 (May 25, 2028) may be
found elsewhere in the catalog under the name Hejira Date Chart.
The Muslim calendar is not always based on the lunar year (AH),
however, causing some confusion, particularly in Afghanistan and Iran,
where a calendar based on the solar year (SH) was introduced around
1920. These dates can be converted to AD by simply adding 621. In
1976 the government of Iran implemented a new solar calendar based
on the foundation of the Iranian monarchy in 559 BC. The first year
observed on the new calendar was 2535 (MS), which commenced
March 20, 1976. A reversion to the traditional SH dating standard
occurred a few years later.
Several different eras of reckoning, including Christian and Muslim
(AH), have been used to date coins of the Indian subcontinent. The two
basic systems are the Vikrama Samvat (VS), which dates from Oct. 18, 58
BC, and the Saka era, the origin of which is reckoned from March 3, 78
AD. Dating according to both eras appears on various coins of the area.
Coins of Thailand (Siam) are found dated by three different eras.
The most predominant is the Buddhist era (BE), which originated in 543
BC. Next is the Bangkok or Ratanakosindsok (RS) era, dating from
1781 AD; followed by the Chula-Sakarat (CS) era, dating from 638 AD.
The latter era originated in Burma and is used on that country's coins.
Other calendars include that of the Ethiopian era (EE), which com-
menced seven years, eight months after AD dating; and that of the Jew-
ish people, which commenced on Oct. 7, 3761 BC. Korea claims a
legendary dating from 2333 BC, which is acknowledged in some of its
coin dating. Some coin issues of the Indonesian area carry dates deter-
mined by the Javanese Aji Saka era (AS), a calendar of 354 days (100
IDENTIFICATION
The most important step in the identification of a coin is the determi-
nation of the nation of origin. This is generally easily accomplished
where English-speaking lands are concerned, however, use of the
country index is sometimes required. The coins of Great Britain provide
an interesting challenge. For hundreds of years the only indication of
the country of origin was in the abbreviated Latin legends. In recent
times there have been occasions when there has been no indication of
origin. Only through the familiarity of the monarchical portraits, symbols
and legends or indication of currency system are they identifiable.
The coins of many countries beyond the English-language realm, such
as those of French, Italian or Spanish heritage, are also quite easy to
identify through reference to their legends, which appear in the national
languages based on Western alphabets. In many instances the name is
spelled exactly the same in English as in the national language, such as
France; while in other cases it varies only slightly, like Italia for Italy, Bel-
gique or Belgie for Belgium, Brasil for Brazil and Danmark for Denmark.
This is not always the case, however, as in Norge for Norway,
Espana for Spain, Sverige for Sweden and Helvetia for Switzerland.
Some other examples include:
DEUTSCHES REICH - Germany 1873-1945
BUNDESREPUBLIC DEUTSCHLAND - Federal Republic of Germany.
DEUTSCHE DEMOKRATISCHE REPUBLIK -
German Democratic Republic.
EMPIRE CHERIFIEN MAROC - Morocco.
ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS - United Mexican States (Mexico).
ETAT DU GRAND LIBAN - State of Great Lebanon (Lebanon).
Thus it can be seen there are instances in which a little schooling in
the rudiments of foreign languages can be most helpful. In general,
colonial possessions of countries using the Western alphabet are simi-
larly identifiable as they often carry portraits of their current rulers, the
familiar lettering, sometimes in combination with a companion designa-
tion in the local language.
Collectors have the greatest difficulty with coins that do not bear leg-
ends or dates in the Western systems. These include coins bearing
Cyrillic lettering attributable to Bulgaria, Russia, the Slavic states and
Mongolia; the Greek script peculiar to Greece, Crete and the Ionian
Islands; the Amharic characters of Ethiopia; or Hebrew in the case of
Israel. Dragons and sunbursts along with the distinctive word charac-
ters attribute a coin to the Oriental countries of China, Japan, Korea,
Tibet, Viet Nam and their component parts.
The most difficult coins to identify are those bearing only Persian or
Arabic script and its derivatives, found on the issues of nations stretch-
ing in a wide swath across North Africa and East Asia, from Morocco to
