What books might use the FD catalogue system for Oriental coins.
I'm trying to crossreference KM, Hartill and Schjoth numbers.
Help or suggestions Appreciated.

FD is "Fisher's Ding" - a 1990 English-language translation by George Albert Fisher of a 1980 Chinese-language coin catalogue by Ding Fubao.

Schjoth is older (1929); FD quotes Schjoth numbers. The Jin catalogue (published by Krause Publications) quotes both FD and Schjoth numbers, but is full of errors; entire chapters have been wrongly numbered. I think Hartill has now superseded them all in terms of comprehensiveness and accuracy.

KM numbers are their own creature and the KM catalogues don't cross-reference any other book for cast cash coins; they bear little connection to the other catalogues and few people who specialize in cash coins would use them, mainly because they "start halfway through" at 1601.
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis

Sounds like I need to step up my game and get the Hartill book.
Thanks.
