New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.
My 1866 Philly Mint Set
With the digitization of papers picking up steam (the New York Times is now digitized from 1851 up) we are about to see an explosion of numismatic tidbits mined from contemporary newspapers.
I am currently working on an article about William Wetmore, a NY collector circa 1900. Proquest.com, the largest repository of digitzed newspapers, came up with about 100 citations in New York and London newspapers. This kind of info was virtually impossible to find, heretofore.
