Perfect gift for hobbyists
Bought this for my father who collects Asian currency. He hasn't put it down since opening it. The standard catalog numbers are very helpful for organizing his collection.

Essential for any RMB collector
This book is incredibly detailed. The high-resolution images make identifying specific mint marks easy, and the historical context provided for each commemorative series is fascinating.

Excellent investment guide
I appreciated the section on market trends and appreciation potential. It helped me understand which older circulating coins are becoming scarce. Highly recommended for serious investors.

Comprehensive but pricey
You definitely get what you pay for. The depth of information on rare varieties is unmatched in other English guides. I wish there was a digital version included with the purchase.

Great reference, heavy book
The information is top-notch and very up-to-date with recent releases. My only minor complaint is that the hardcover is quite heavy to hold while reading, but that's due to the quality paper used for the photos.
