  • Seven Reasons Why Gold Will Run in 2021!
    Seven Reasons Why Gold Will Run in 2021! Gold’s BULL RUN in the Post COVID Economy Call 1-(800) 892-0775 The World Has Been Forever Changed. “Covid-19 has disrupted our social and economic order at lightning speed and on a scale that we have not seen in living memory.” — Kristalina Georgieva - Managing Director of the IMF The notion that the U.S. economy, businesses, and households will return to normal in 2021 is not only wishful thinking, it reflects a fundamental misunderstanding of the degree of disruption caused by the economic and social events of 2020. The financial shock caused by COVID-19 was historic. The Federal Reserve printed massive amounts of money to support its deficit spending which included unprecedented securities purchases, loans to banks and corporations, small business assistance, and direct payments to American families. But millions remain unemployed, and experts suggest the recovery will be slower than previous downturns because the contraction of 2020 was unlike anything the U.S. or the world has ever seen. COVID-19 has driven global debt to record highs paralyzing economies across the globe. American households continue to grapple with unemployment, uncertainty, social distancing, shutdowns, and the struggles of remote learning. Experts predict that some U.S. jobs will never come back as various sectors of the economy have been forever changed. Inflation is also poised to return, and its effects could be exacerbated by a new President that plans to raise taxes and re-regulate the energy the labor sectors at a greater cost to consumers. And as lockdowns ease and the stay- at-home economy shifts, look for a massive economic disruption, as the most exuberant stock rally in history could finally tumble back down to earth.

  • Attributing US Coin Die Varieties
    Attributing United States Coin Die Varieties An Introduction Areas of Variety Attribution There are two basic disciplines of variety attribution with respect to US coins. Each requires a somewhat different set of skills. • The first area pertains to dies produced using extensive hand punching of the lesser design elements. These include all of the Liberty Bust types coined from 1793 until the mid- to late 1830s. The presses of this period simply were not powerful enough to transmit the entire design in the die- making process. • The second area concerns dies in which nearly the entire design was hubbed, leaving only the date and mintmark to be hand punched. Such coins were made from the late 1830s until fairly recently, but since 1990–91 all features of the die have been fully hubbed with almost no variation beyond that caused by the occasional double-hubbed die. Attributing Varieties on Hand Punched Dies On early US coins, only the central devices were impressed into the die using a hub. These typically included the bust of Liberty and the figure of an eagle. Liberty’s hair and the eagle’s feathers were often touched up afterward with a graving tool to bring them out more fully. Small elements, such as the leaves and stems of the wreath, were then added with individual punches. The placement of stars, legends, the denomination and the date was also done with hand punches. The engraver used a compass to inscribe a circle for arranging these elements as neatly as possible, but their relative positions always varied enough that a numismatist may distinguish one die from another.

  • Mintproducts Auctions RARE COIN and CURRENCY AUCTION
    Auction #9 MPA MintProducts Auctions RARE COIN AND CURRENCY AUCTION SEPTEMBER 19, 2016 | NASHUA, NEW HAMPSHIRE Bid online at: www.mintproductsauctions.com | 3 Hello and welcome to MPA’s 4th sale of 2016! We’re back with our largest sale ever - over 700 lots with a plethora of items! We have over 100 lots of Currency alone, including some great Type Notes and a collection of Colonial Notes that have been off the market for decades. That’s not where the highlights stop! Others include: a 1793 Chain Cent, an About Uncirculated 1893-S and 1895-S MS-64 Morgan Dollar, a 1799 10.00 Gold Coin, and an 1849 Numis Gregg + Numis Territorial Gold, and that’s still not all! You’ll have to browse our catalog or website to see the rest. Our July Internet Only Sale was a great success! These sales typically have fewer lots (around 400) but we received more bids than in any of our previous auctions – thank you! Thinking of selling? We’re accepting consignments for our November Sale held in conjunction with the NH Coin & Currency Expo in Manchester, NH. Our previous sales at the expo were very well attended, so make sure your coins are included at this event! Remember, we offer some of the best rates available anywhere and we offer inders fees! Our sales are literally promoted from coast to coast. In just the last two months, we’ve exhibited lots at both the Baltimore Coin Show in Maryland and the ANA Convention in Anaheim, CA. We picked up dozens of new bidders (and consignors!) which is important to having successful auctions in this type of market.
