I have seen Krause books leave out a coin or 2 here and there. I'd check the 4th edition.
Sap should be along shortly to answer this riddle.

I saw the pics but I don't know enough about the various city states of the 1800's And I don't have the 1800's book so I can't be of much help. And I'm serious...if Sap can't give you a clear answer with a complete history lesson then I'll melt down all my coins and build me a new car.  |

Sorry I'm late... had a busy weekend.
As has been suggested, this is another example of later edition Krauses deleting coins which used to be present in earlier editions. It seems to have happened a lot back when they split the all-in-one volume into separate centuries.
I just checked on NumisMaster and this coin is completely gone from their database.

it was only a 2 year type coin, that may have had something to do with it
