Since 1952, Chet has been a steadfast figure in the numismatic world. Clifford Mishler joined the company as a member of the numismatic editorial staff in 1962. He has served on the U.S. government's annual Assay Commission and on the Coins and Medals Advisory Panel of the American Revolution Bicentennial Commission. In 1984, the American Numismatic Association recognized his lifelong dedication to numismatics and presented its highest honor to him, the Farran Zerbe Memorial Award.

He has earned 16 awards from the Numismatic Literary Guild for his work.

5.0 out of 5 stars It is a catalog., 9 Jun 2003
By bernie "xyzzy" (Arlington, Texas) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)      
This animal is good for pointing out many coins that may be missed in the smaller magazines and at trade shows. However it is a catalog, about the size of a phone book and with so few advertisers that they are negligible. There are no fancy color pictures just coins and lots of them divided into countries; so many coins that it can make your head spin if you are not searching for a particular theme. The shallow part of the book is the depth of time.
When I write reviews I look for a stumper or two. Well this book passed. I looked up the “Wailbligen 100”. Sure as shoot'n there it was with an explanation and references to Porcelain coins.

4.0 out of 5 stars Essential for the world coin collector, 26 May 2001
This review is from: Standard Catalog of World Coins 2001 (Paperback)
As ever the Krause family of standard coin catalogues continue to be essential reading for any even slightly serious coin collector. Their content is quite unparralelled in its fullness, along with their sensible pricing guide. Well worth the investment.

3.0 out of 5 stars A little disappointed..., 26 Dec 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Standard Catalog of World Coins 2003 (Standard Catalog of World Coins: 1901-2000) (Paperback)
This is the standard reference catalogue for world coins and for this edition the listings have been reordered so that they are more intuitively alphabetical. What a challenge it must be to edit such a book... especially with the multitude of modern commemorative coins issued each year. It is inevitable that some mistakes will occur, but I was a little disappointed to find whole series missing or misplaced within some country listings. I have had to refer back to an older edition just to find some coins... it has put me off buying a newer version for a while. For a reference work I think accuracy is important and I hope it has improved in subsequent editions.
