Headline News

Doug Winter has posted an article on The Proof Gold Market. For those of us who experienced the coin market’s ups and downs in the 1980’s and 1990’s, perhaps the biggest surprise has been the relatively quiet Proof gold market of the past few years

Greg Reynolds has posted Part 6 of his series on the Millenma Sale Held by the Goldberg’s in May of this year. The series entitled “The Greatest World Coin Auction of All Time” is therhaps the most comprehensive analysis of a major auction in recent years, and will serve as a reference and resource for numismatists interested in World coins for years to come. Great Job Greg !

Coin collectors are in for an eclectic and fascinating Numismatic odyssey when they turn the pages of the upcoming Stacks Coin Galleries September 10th Mail and Internet Bid Sale.

Greg Reynolds has posted our Featured Article for today with a story on the 1876-CC Twenty Cent Piece that is being sold by Superior Galleries in Long Beach Next week. The coin is part of the “Comstock” collection being offered by Superior. This will be a Great sale and the 1876-CC will surely be one of the highlights.

Doug Winter has produced another exceptional article on the Top Ten Rarest Liberty Head Quarter Eagles. There may be one or two surpises in Doug’s list so make sure you read this one. As always, the articles from RareGoldCoins.com are informative, insightful and enjoyable.

Tim Shuck has also contributed another our our US Type Coin Profiles on one of our favorite Series, the Capped Bust Quarter, Large Size, 1815-1828. Bust quarters are a facinating series often overshadowed by thier larger and more popular Bust Halves. There is also a new book out about Early United States Quarters written by Steve Tompkins. It is THE reference source that every collector should have in their library. Go to Wizard Coin Supply to pick up your copy.
