Hello, I would like some comment or a little review on this book please.... might be interesting.

Thank you very much

Well... what can I say? The book is printed completely in glossy colour and gives examples of nearly every type of error note you can think of. Banknotes from around the world are shown, including several from Canada. Estimates of value are provided for all error notes. While this book certainly does not try to be a definitive catalogue for all errors worldwide, it does provide a broad sampling that should be useful as a handy guide for many collectors.
