We have suspected from the time that coin shows reemerged from the COVID lock-down, that there was a lot of bottled-up potential business just ready to explode. Coming on the heels of successful Dalton and Columbus venues, Gettysburg proved yet again that both dealers and collectors are ready to resume attending coin shows. More importantly, […]
We were wondering if we would be saying this again, but we are back in full-swing show mode. Last week’s Ohio State Coin Show in Dublin, Ohio was a barn-burner. It was quite possibly our best Dublin Show ever. Who would have predicted coming after a five month hiatus? Not us! There is an old […]
This summer has been anything but ordinary. In the midst of a world pandemic, the coin market has been on fire, and there seems to be no end in sight. With the resumption of coin shows, the coin supply shortage should begin to resolve itself. If metals continue their strength into the fall, this could […]
The Blue Ridge Numismatic Association’s Dalton Coin Show went off without a hitch, which was the best possible scenario for everybody concerned. Grant Campbell and the BRNA worked tirelessly to insure that this venue met or exceeded all local COVID protocols, while not compromising the integrity or quality of the show. It was a balancing […]
In an interesting follow up to last week’s blog, the precious metals markets witnessed a major correction on Tuesday. Perhaps, it was profit taking triggering a sell-off. The next week should demonstrate whether or not this was the case. Irrespective, we still feel that metals are missing a critical underlying component for a sustained run. […]
For those of you old enough to remember the above title and what it specifically referenced, you probably also understand the direction today’s report is heading. If the title eluded you or you’re not a child of the 1980’s, Memorex was a cassette recording tape with unparalleled sound reproduction. Their advertisements challenged listeners to discern […]
The temperatures have really heated up here in the mid-Atlantic, leaving no doubt what time of year it is. For those of you that take your indicators from sources other than the calendar, we point to the coin market, which seems to have gone into seasonal hibernation. To be perfectly clear, the market is not […]
Traditionally, summer months were when the coin market went into its annual hibernation. Not so, this year. Perhaps stay-at-home orders accounted for the spike in activity over the last quarter. Whatever the reason, momentum is still with us. An unusual amount of activity has remained the trademark through this early summer period. Whether it maintains, […]
Does anybody notice that none of the news lately seems good? COVID19 is allegedly going through a resurgence, racism and ensuing rioting is leading to widespread social discourse, and an unstable economy is being exasperated by record unemployment. Throughout all of this doom and gloom, we have been selling coins, and a LOT of them. […]
The coin market historically slows down in the summer. Vacations and outdoor activities can take center stage to numismatics. But as we all are aware, these last couple of months have been anything but normal. Traditional patterns and trends are being redefined at every turn, so for now, all bets are off. Will folks spend […]
