First published in 1910, it has become an important reference work for philately , with information not available in the English language Scott catalog . The catalog started out as a price list for the dealer Hugo Michel of Apolda . By 1920 it was split into two volumes, for Europe and overseas , and eventually grew to a present day size of about a dozen volumes covering the entire world, with additional specialized volumes bringing the total to some forty catalogs. It extensively covers specialized Germany collecting including the complex WW2 era stamps of Germany, occupied territories, and provisional stamps . Unlike Scott, Michel does not issue a complete set of catalogs every year, instead updating only several of the volumes. Michel is also more detailed, with quantities issued, sheet formats, and so forth. Also of significance to some collectors is its coverage of countries and periods omitted by Scott for editorial or political reasons. For instance, US embargoes against Cuba, Iraq, and North Korea are reflected by Scott s failure to show market values for those countries stamp issues as late as 2002, Scott did not supply any information at all about North Korean stamps , and Michel is one of few sources for that information.

unref date April 2009 An auction catalog is a catalog that lists items to be sold at an auction which is written and made available well before the auction date. Auction catalogs for rare and expensive items, such as art , jewelry , postage stamp s, and antique furniture , are of interest in and of themselves, for they will frequently include detailed descriptions of the items, their provenance , historical significance, photographs, and so forth. In some cases, auction catalogs are key documentation for rare objects that are in private collections, and make up an important part of the libraries of students and dealers of the rarities. Each entry typically includes a lot number identifying each item uniquely, a detailed textual description, and either an estimated price, or a reserve price below which the item will not be sold. Photographs may appear with the entry, or grouped into a separate section of the catalog for mass produced items like postage stamps, the textual description may be considered sufficient. As a combined information source and sales brochure , an auction catalog must tread a fine line between accuracy and promotion. For instance, any damages or flaws must be described exactly, so that buyers cannot be claim to have been deceived, but at the same time the description will typically include words playing down the bad points as in brownish spot that does not detract from appearance or faint crease, as is common . Similarly, special characteristics are also called out, such as one of only four known examples of this type , or perhaps a photograph of an item of jewelry being worn by a famous person. Auction catalogs may be sent gratis to favored customers, but the better catalogs will cost, sometimes as much or more than a regular book. These kinds of catalogs may in turn be sold by bookstores, or even appear as items in book auctions.

A coin catalog or coin catalogue is a listing of coin types. Information may include pictures of the obverse and reverse front and back , date and place of minting, translation of inscriptions, description of images, and prices for various grades. Defects may be described. The quality, detail and completeness of the information available about a particular coin varies according to popularity, commonality, and available scholarly research. Because of the huge number of coins in world history, there are no comprehensive catalogs. Professional collectors typically keep many books for identification and assessment. Most commonly, coin catalogs come in one of two forms. Reference works such as A Guide Book of United States Coins , published by Whitman Publishing and more popularly known as the Red Book , and the Standard Catalog of World Coins , published by Krause Publications , give descriptions and approximate prices of coins at many different levels of preservation, or grades. The other form is the auction catalog, where only those specific coins available in the auction are described, with photo plates available for some of the more prominent coins. Coin catalogs are essential when dealing with ancient or foreign coins, where the inscriptions may be obscure and unrecognizably stylized, even for a native speaker. Coin catalogs today are supplemented by Internet sites, some of which have the advantage of being attached to user forums, so that issues such as counterfeiting may be discussed. With the rise of online auctions, it is now possible for collectors to research their coins at commercial sites such as EBay , Heritage Auctions , or Teletrade, as well as myriad collector created sites containing research into diverse collecting specialties.
