Anyone here subscribe to Numismatic News?

Just wondering if anyone has any experience with this publication.
I recently received an offer for a steep discount off the list subscription price, and I feel a bit outside the loop after giving up on my Coin World subscription.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts…

It's one of the top trade journals / hobbyist periodicals. I recommend subscribing
to both NN and CW.
These days they are both trash. I don't even take the free issues at shows anymore.

It is fun to look at even if it arrives a week late.
The can not ship it for 26 weeks for that kind of money.
It was once a good publication, but that was many years ago.
I dropped all print magazines and now, just rely on
Coin World on Line ...
It's amazing how quickly all the periodicals accumulate
and how infrequently I actually looked at much more
than the cover stories.
Having a membership here ( as well as a couple of other
sites ) I get all the coin news I could possibly digest.

Night and day difference between CW and NN. I'm a CW subscriber for 20+ years and have enjoyed it. NN could be free and I'd still have no use for it.

The printed word is fine. But when it can lead thieves to your door step, that's another matter. A PO Box is a help, but not fool-proof.
For the price it is good entertainment.
There is stuff I will just skip but it is a good read to me.
I kept my CW subscription to keep up with current hobby news. I receive 8 journals published by hobby-related organizations (see below), and rely on these for more in-depth articles about numismatic topics of interest to me.
