    Have you heard of the Mr. T Gold Indicator?

    Here’s the Coin Collector’s Blog ANA World’s Fair of Money Day 1 wrap up, complete with photo slide show.

    Two big events were the US Mint’s unveiling of the 2009 Ultra High Relief Double Eagle Gold Coin and NGC’s announcement of a new holder design.

    PNG gives awards to two of the founders of NGC and PCGS.

    Here’s a neat story about a boy with a knack for finding coins.

    Superior Galleries announces their results from the July 26, 2008 Baltimore Elite Auction.

    Numismaster provides some interesting original reportage on the short lived 2 Cent Denomination.

    And now for some notable auctions. I love the look of this In-Collar Double Struck Wheat Penny. The reverse reminds me of Alphabet Soup.

    The first State Quarter in high grade- Delaware State Quarter NGC PF 70 Ultra Cameo.

    And the 1982 “No P” Roosevelt Dime PCGS MS66.

    See you tomorrow!

      They are apparently phasing in the release. The new Edge View Holder will be used for all submissions starting in the first quarter of 2009.
