Schjöth, Fredrik, Chinese Currency, Bristol, 1929, Publications of the Numismatic Cabinet of the University of Oslo, No. 1, 88 pages, 132 plates, plus additional pages and plates added by Hancock, hardcover. Although a bit outdated now, it is reasonably comprehensive, has background information on the coinage, and a well-recognized, simple numbering system. Illustrations are simplified hand drawings which aid identification by novices, but do not reflect true calligraphy details. Decent sections on Chinese charms, Korean, Vietnamese, and Japanese cash, but not comprehensive enough for use today. It was the standard among Western collectors before Hartill, but is now essentially obsolete, except for the numbering system which is still widely used, ex. H. F. Bowker Numismatic Library. Howard Franklin Bowker (1889-1970) was a numismatist and philatelist, collecting and specializing in Chinese coins, stamps and banknotes. He created the first bibliography of Western language publications on East Asian numismatics.
