New Metals Are On Their Way

By the end of this year new metals should be announced for the penny and nickel due to the cost of the mints expenses in making them.

Keep an eye on this blog for further information.

Say Hello To El-Yunque

The next America The Beautiful quarter in the series is from the country of Puerto Rico.It is of their national park called El Yunque.

The coin is quite impressive with an unknown bird perched in a tree and adds to the number of animals in the state and series features .

It is unfortunate that only numismatists are enjoying this series due to the non interest of the regular population. Perhaps at some point the series will catch on and those who are purchasing rolls of the quarters will get rewarded highly.

Anyway ,I am enjoying learning about the many parks and territories being featured and will continue to follow the series.

THE END OF THE SERIES

The end of presidential coins has finally arrived. Due to the great abundance in the government vaults they will no longer be circulated to banks to be given as face value.

However,the government will continue them for collectors and a premium will be added to the rolls. If any of my customers still want to add to their collections just e mail me and I will try to help you find them or sell them to you when they become available.

This is probably just the beginning of changes coming to the coin industry due to the fact our government is broke and is trying to save a few dollars.The penny and nickel will probably be on the chopping block next as reported in earlier blogs.

Furthermore,I just read in a blog that all money will be obsolete shortly due to people paying everything with their smart phones.

Stay tuned for more information.
