It is always fun to assemble a collection coin by coin, over a period of time. Recently, I have started to do this with Vermont copper coins.

It is that time of year when publisher Dennis Tucker, project coordinator Eleanor Burden, and the Whitman Publishing staff to create the next “Red Book.”

New Bowers book gives behind the scenes views from the U.S. Mint’s four current production facilities and explores other paths in the Mint's 225-year history.

Most who have given numismatics a chance for several years have stayed on for life.

Almost from day one of Bowers' interest in coin collecting, he has found numismatic history to be one of his favorite specialties.

Ten years ago, in 2007, a book written by Katherine (Katie) Jaeger and me, The 100 Greatest American Medals and Tokens, was published. Guess what was Number 1.

Bowers and a former business partner used to quiz each other on 'Red Book' trivia. Now he puts Coin World readers to the test.

The American Numismatic Society is holding its annual Gala one last time at the Waldorf-Astoria before the iconic hotel is converted into condominiums.

Tokens are as popular as ever, the legendary numismatist writes in his latest Coin World column, more or less immune from market cycles.

While collecting federal coinage attracts all kinds of investors, tokens and medals have always been the focus of the more artistically inclined numismatist.
