Concerning Raymond's Standard Catalogue of United States Coins, the "conventional wisdom" mentioned by David Lange remains correct: the first edition was published in hardcover in 1934. What he has is an earlier publication covering only silver and copper coins. Raymond published a number of earlier works of this sort, covering only selections of the U.S. numismatic spectrum. It is not at all rare; when it is offered, it would usually be in a bulk lot.
