Coins We Love: Atlanta ANA National Money Show Edition

Results: February Grading Contest
Thank you to all of our participants in our inaugural Monthly Grading Contest! Of course we realize grading based on images (even images of the high-quality our DLRC team achieves) is not ideal and nothing beats seeing the coin in hand. That being said this is purely for fun and

Coins We Love: Final FUN Show Recap
Typically, coin dealers flock south for the Winter FUN Show in hopes of a little warm weather, some sunshine, and maybe a day of relaxation amidst a week of brutally long trading days and meet-ups. This year did not serve those opportunities as the thermometer was unkind, with chilly temperatures

Coins We Love: We're Having a FUN Time!
I’m not going to lie, the FUN Show is a lot of things! It starts off exciting, fantastic, welcoming, and rejuvenating. After 3 days it becomes tiring and long. After 5 days it's exhausting. And on day 7, when some of us finally return home, it is relieving. Though

Coins We Love: An Interview with John Brush Part 2
As mentioned last week, I was asked several questions and thought they might make for a good CWL… or two (or three!) — so, here is Q&A with John Brush Part Two! The US mint has made an “instant rarity” by striking 230 of the 2024 Gold Flowing Hair 230th
Coins We Love: An Interview with John Brush
Every year I get a series of questions from a numismatic journalist friend that asks questions about the previous year and expectations for the following year. Not all of the answers are included in the resulting article (which is probably a good thing), but I figured that I’d take

Coins We Love: Parenting and Coin Collecting
Parenting, like coin collecting, can be difficult! I learn this every day in my household because everything can’t always be perfect, especially when you’re dealing with High School Spanish and Algebra. But sometimes you settle for doing the best that you can. In working with collectors, sometimes this
Coins We Love: Baltimore Again
Baltimore; kind of feels like Groundhog Day. They do a great job running this show and it’s always a consistent winner when it comes to attendance, business, and activity. Looking back at 20 years of attending Baltimore Shows I realized this week that I surpassed having spent an entire

Coins We Love: What Happens at Small Shows?
The lifeblood of the hobby of numismatics is the collector. The wholesale market revolves around what is in demand, what can be sold to collector (eventually) or what folks find interesting. Ultimately, the more we try to branch out as a hobby/industry, the answers really comes down to “what
