Thanks for info.
Found the catalogue and was happy to pay approximately $47.00 plus $3.99 postage, but when I got to the checkout, the postage had risen to £17.00.
Emailed company but have not had a reply.

I'm not an expert in any kind of coins, but I reckon I'm good at research and will do my best to help. Feel free to tell me my identifications/valuations/gradings are wrong. It's the only way I'll learn.

Thanks to BizzoDoes,
Order the last one available this morning. I will let you know what it is like when I have received it.
Thanks again for everyone's help.
Looking to get more of these coins into my collection.
One note about the hardcover 2012 edition. unlike earlier editions It gives values in euros (rather than DM) and for 2 conditions, which more or less translate as VF and XF. So coins with rust/white would be less than the low value and UNC coins more than the high value. But UNC is pretty common because notgeld were often made for collectors rather than for circulation.
The 2012 edition also includes many varieties (eg, 1 close to/far away from 0 in “10’"; beaded circle vs "rope" circle, etc), some of which are quite valuable. But can be hard to use because of all the varieties (a,b,c,d, etc) make it difficult to find the exact coin.
Values do not seem to have moved much from the 2000 edition to the 2012, though there are exceptions.
As I've aid elsewhere, I have very many notgeld doubles (~120) that I'd like to trade Funk value for Funck value. Send me a message (or start a swap) if you have notgelds.
My new Notgeld catalogue arrived today. Not had much time to look through it as I have football this afternoon.
Was brand new in original wrapping. Looks great.
I only want to use the catalogue as a record of those I have, so the values stated are of a secondary interest.
My only problem is that it is in German, but that can be overcome with a little time and effort.
Very happy to have bought one after looking for one for a long time.
The 2000 edition of Funck was actually 2 volumes of a 3-volume set.
Volume 1 was the municipal issues.
Volume 2 was the varieties of the municipal issues (in 2012, this was apparently included in one volume).
Volume 3 was the Middleton catalog of private issues.
