Coin World's Collectors' Clearinghouse recycling old columns

For the last few months, Coin World has been reprinting my old columns. I stopped submitting new material in November after they fell 4 1/2 months behind in paying me. So, after 16 years of uninterrupted productivity, it looks like I may need to find a new writing or consulting gig. I'm open to any offers or suggestions. -- Mike Diamond

    I worked with Mike for nearly the entirety of his service as a valued contributor during my long career at Coin World, until my retirement at the end of 2023. I could always count on Mike to provide interesting and educational "Collectors' Clearinghouse" columns; I don't think he ever missed a deadline. Coin World's loss of him as a columnist will be felt for years.

    Damn. You know how I feel about Clearinghouse. It made me what I am today.

    There's a 3 month old Coin World thread here you may not be aware of Mike.

    I am sorry this has happened to you @errormaven !

    CCC was the first section I would always turn to when I received my CW. Learned a lot.
