Summary: Has some very good features
Review: While it is not as comprehensive as the "Seaby" catalogue, it does have some very useful features such as the rarities of the different mints and line drawings of the many different types of the Henry III, Edward I and earlier, making them easier to identify.

It does not include the Anglo-Saxon coins of before 1066, but is a very helpful resource for any English collector.
