What’s New This Week……….
Greg Reynolds writes on Stack’s auction of the W.L. Carson collection proof coins. “The current topic is the W. L. Carson collection, which features Proof U.S. coins. It was auctioned by Stack's in Baltimore last week.”
Doug Winter writes on CAC stickers. “After two+ years of being traded on the open market, I think few collectors and dealers would argue the statement that CAC stickering has added considerable value and liquidity to many types of United States gold coinage.”
Jim Wells from the California Numismatist writes on the “Crime of 1873″ and its impact on numismatic history.
Quarter-dollar coins honoring Mount Hood National Forest in Oregon will enter into circulation on November 15. At noon Eastern Time (ET) the same day, the United States Mint will begin accepting orders for collectible bags and two-roll sets containing the new coin.
Legend Numismatics gives a market report for the Baltimore Coin Show. “Yeah, this is broken record: Mary Counts, David Chrenshaw, Lori Hamrick and team did it again. They put on one of the BEST shows.”
Vic Bozarth gives part one of tips for building a meaningful set of U.S. coins. “I am often asked what I collect. I have collected things since my earliest days. I often tell people that 'you either have the collecting bug-or you don't. I certainly have the bug.”
Gainesville Coins writes on the rationing of American gold and silver eagle bullion. “This September after more than two years, the United States Mint lifted the rationing of American Gold and Silver Eagle bullion coins.”
