Standard catalog of world paper money might be discontinued
That is a rumor going around. Don't know if it is true or not.
If people are using it mainly as a pricing tool I would suspect that Ebay has taken a toll on its usefulness. At around $50+ and coming out every year it might just be too much for people to buy every year these days. It would be a shame to see it go but I'm sure that F&M (Krause) has to make some tough decisions from time to time.

Would hate to see it discontinued but I suspect that most papermoney collectors don't buy a new one every year anyway. I certainly don't buy a SCOWC every year. Dale

Dale I suspect people are not buying enough of them on a yearly basis to meet production costs these days, if people are skipping more than one year between buying an updated version that puts even more strain on the bottom line. The price of gas etc. these days has probably taken its toll as well.

In fact, the 2007 version just came in on Friday. --Andrew
