I received a fat package in the mail recently... it contained this:

http://www.amazon.com/Catalog-Dairy...p/0945008090

I knew I was ordering a catalogue, but I was blown away at just how thick and comprehensive this catalogue was at 1284 pages!! ... a must have book for dairy token collectors.

That said, I still have a couple of Nova Scotia dairy tokens that are not in this catalogue...

Good show, I want to pick ones up but I am poor and there were really no online reviews of it.

I want it for Maritime reasons but you say you found quite a few holes with the NS section? Does it have a fairly comprehensive NB or even ME section by any chance?

God forbid if I ever get into tokens, there are so many of them, and just as many reference books too! Good job on increasing your library, that is always a good thing!

I don't_dare look at tokens. It's bad enough with circulating coinage as it is.

It is comprehensive for every US state and Canadian province/territory. It also cites the previous work at the beginning of each state/province. It does not contain photos of each token, otherwise this thing would be three volumes thick!!

I have found three Nova Scotia tokens not in the catalogue... I do know that Geoffery Bell (Bell auctions) is quite the expert in New Brunswick dairy tokens, and has published catalogues specifically for that province (I only collect NS, but deal in all kinds of milk tokens sometimes).

SPP-Ottawa, can you post some pictures of the pages or some entries. I am interested in this book but am balking at the price.
