KN Boon 8th edition book will be out in 2 weeks

KN Boon new book

The new 8th edition will have 620 pages compare to the old one 496 pages, a lot thicker and heavier then the previous edition.

A lot of new items will be added in the book especially the much awaited Malaya Rubber Coupons section. Some unlisted rubber coupons will be added in the new book and all coupons will be in full colour.

There will also be many never before seen specimen and trial banknotes which will be added in the new book. The Malaysia 1966 unissued, unrecorded, uniface trial Pattern Coins will also be feature in the new book.

If you have their Trigometric Auction 3 catalogue, you may have noticed they have changed the design of their book cover. They put a picture of a fishermen village taken from a 10 dollars Straits Settlements banknotes as their main book cover image.

The book printing works will begin early next week and it is expected to be ready in two weeks. There is no confirmation by Trigometric about the new book price. Will update when I received any new information.
