Rating  - What subscription?
You charged me for this - and I want it - yet I still have not started receiving it. Either provide me with a subscription or refund my money.
Rating - Still Waiting
I really would like to review this item but I still haven't received it!
Rating  - All about money/collecting
This is without a doubt one of the best magazine/newspapers that you can find to keep up with the coin collecting craze. The only problem I have with it is that sometimes, the paper tries to get in to politics and not coin collecting. The problems that the ANA is/was having has been beaten to death. If you are serious about coin collecting, this is for you.
Rating  - This magazine comes out once a week...
This magazine comes out once a week so you will stay up-to-date with the hobby. One of the features of this magazine is the monthly price guide. This is a supplement to the actually magazine you get. In the price guide, tons of US coin prices are listed. This price guide is a retail price guide, not wholesale.
Another one of my favorite things about the magazine is the weekly mintage page. On this page all the mintages for what the mint has made in 2005 are listed. Wondering how many silver proof sets were made? What about the Kansas state quarter? You can find the answer of all of these in the magazine.
Now to the articles. I personally find them okay. They are not bad and some are very interesting, but I would not say that they are outstanding. They do cover a diverse array of topics. A plus about the articles is they will keep you up-to-date. Was there a major auction or a large show? A record price or a major rarity discovered? You will find out when you read it.
The last thing I have to say is about the classified ads. If you are a Numismatic News subscriber, you get a free 25-word classified ad with each issue. This means you could post an ad for buying coins, trading coins, or selling coins. This is a cool little feature of the magazine.
Altogether this is an excellent weekly coin magazine. Compared to the other weekly coin magazine, Coin World, I would recommend the following. If you like the article more and do not care about the classified ads, go with Coin World. If you like the classified ads and do not care as much about the articles, go with Numismatic News. You cannot go wrong with either of the weekly publications. However, it is up to you to decide which one to subscribe to or...both?
