[ READ MORE ] 02/18/2008 - Business Brisk in Long Beach After a slow start in Long Beach, the majority of dealers wound up having a very successful show.

[ READ MORE ] 02/04/2008 - Demand Strong in Most Series This year has begun with a separation of rarity (mintage and/or quality) away from common material. Most collectors are continuing to advance their skills, looking for more important features such as date and grade. They are not just trying to add more coins to an accumulation; these... [ READ MORE ] 01/28/2008 - Another Week, Another Record Gold and Platinum continue to attain new highs. Gold moved past the $925 mark and now rests at $926.20. Platinum is headed toward $1700, currently at $1695. Silver continues to move solidly, now at $16.55. As strong as the metals appear, many analysts feel there could be a correction,... [ READ MORE ] 01/21/2008 - Metals Down, Rare Coins Up The metals are down markedly this morning as profit-taking leads the way. However, rare coins continue to be extremely active at current FMV levels or higher. The FMV has been modified for many rarities (mostly higher) as we receive more results from the FUN Show.   Throughout this... [ READ MORE ] 01/14/2008 - FUN Show Characterizes Strength The FUN Convention could very well have been the best coin show ever. If not, it certainly was the best FUN Show ever. The sales volume runs into the hundreds of millions of dollars which includes the major auctions and dealer-to-dealer sales prior to the show. It was phenomenal from start to... [ READ MORE ] 01/07/2008 - Year Begins with Dealers in Florida The majority of the country’s coin dealers are in Florida this week for the annual FUN Convention. There are several major auctions prior to and during this tremendously popular show. These combined events should make for a big start to 2008. Collectors should be out in force with plenty of... [ READ MORE ] 12/31/2007 - Happy New Year to All FUN is several days away and it is bound to start the year with hundreds of millions of dollars in sales. The dealer community is looking forward to a very active year. With the metals searching for new highs the market could very well distance itself from all other forms of... [ READ MORE ] 12/17/2007 - Healthy Market Remains Optimistic Some dealers continue to reduce inventory as the year winds down. Most of these coins are selling to other dealers who need them for their clients. There seems to be more lists of coins for sale on the wholesale networks, however, we do not see much discounting of these coins. In fact, when... [ READ MORE ] 12/10/2007 - Market Persistence Continues Activity in the coin market may be slightly lower; however, this is typical for the year-end and holiday season. Many major companies try to reduce inventory at the end of the year so they are not quite as active on the buying side. Yet, they are still maintaining strong prices for the coins... [ READ MORE ] 12/03/2007 - Growing Market for Rarities Bullion stumbled this past week; however, dealers reported a considerable amount of trading in modern bullion issues. It appears that collectors (investors) are taking advantage of lower prices. While Gold fell to just over the $780 mark on Friday, it is up over $788 at this time. The year end... [ READ MORE ] 11/26/2007 - Bullion Market Drives Numismatics Higher gold equates to a more active coin market, but it is not the only driving force. Rare coins are as active as ever and the amount of money available for rarities is plentiful. Astute collectors are acquiring properly graded rarities at a time when there appears to be no apparent... [ READ MORE ] 11/19/2007 - Coin Market Robust While Gold Drifts Lower The metals have fallen this past week, but they appear to be solid at these prices. Analysts believed the metals would test the current levels before heading back on a path toward new highs. However, we could see a rocky road the rest of the year depending on outside economic factors such as... [ READ MORE ] 11/12/2007 - Monday Morning Profit Taking The week starts with a hefty decrease in metal prices. After last week’s strong advance over $830 an ounce, gold has dropped back near the $800 level this morning. Silver and Platinum are down to $14.71 and $1386, respectively. The next few days will be important in determining whether this is... [ READ MORE ] 11/06/2007 - Bullion Continues Climb The metals remain very strong with gold leading the way. Gold surpassed $800 on Friday and seems to be holding steady in morning trading. It is currently at $804.30 and Silver is down just a touch at $14.52. Platinum is higher at $1459. One of the interesting aspects of this current market is... [ READ MORE ] 10/29/2007 - Gold Approaches $800 Bullion is hot and all generic issues are advancing. In early commodity trading gold surpassed the $790 level on its way toward $800. It has since retreated to $787, but that is still up over $4.00 on the day. This has an extreme impact on all modern bullion issues. In this kind of market,...
