A new series of informative and entertaining educational videos, “Spare Change: Coin Collecting Guide,” is available free at the recently-launched website, www.CoinsTV.com. Eight different videos on popular numismatic subjects already are online, and additional programs will be added in the coming weeks and months.

The website is a joint project of collector and CoinUpdate.com Webmaster, Michael Zielinski, and veteran video producer and collector, Mark Apsolon.

Mark_Apsolon The titles and topics of the eight episodes available for free viewing anytime are:

o Introduction to Coin Collecting
o Liberty Head Double Eagle
o Franklin Half Dollar
o Indian Half Eagle and Indian Quarter Eagle
o American Silver Eagle
o Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle
o Presidential Dollar Series
o Morgan Dollar

“Each video provides historical or legislative background for the particular coinage series, information on the coin’s designer, coins specifications, key date coins, and suggestions on collecting or investing in the series. The information is presented in an informative and entertaining fashion, which new and advanced collectors will enjoy,” said Zielinski.

“The website also provides a separate page for each video that allows viewers to rate the video or provide comments. Visitors can also sign up to receive a notification whenever a new video is added to the website.”

Launched in January 2008, Coin Update provides daily news roundups on numismatic-related stories as well as original articles and information.
