Watch List notes:

Lin, Gwo-Ming, Ma Tak-Wo and Chen Gi-Mao, Illustrated Catalogue of Sinkiang Gold and Silver Coins, Taiwan, 1990, 237 pages, hardcover with slipcover. Fantastic well-illustrated catalogue of the many sub varieties of silver and gold coins from Sinkiang (Xinjiang) at the end of the Qing dynasty and the very early years of the Republic. It is especially strong in the varieties of silver ½ miscal coins from the various mints, including the coins of Yakub Beg. There are enough English descriptions to make the book useful, although most of the descriptions of sub varieties are written only in Chinese. Apparently, this is the only serious treatment of the many varieties of these coins, ex James Farr Collection Library.
