Along the way, you will come across some odd facts and interesting byways, together with stories and anecdotal information covering a wide spectrum of special, unusual, and historical types of coinage. Those may be less likely to find their way into the average household collection, but there is a full guide to the coins that you will want as a home collector, supplemented by lists and catalogues that will be useful for checking if anything is missing. At the end, there is a colored virtual album.
