Collectors Article Of The Day

Additional Numismatists Info

Collecting paper money is an exciting hobby that is growing in popularity for many reasons. For one thing it's becoming increasingly easy to find interesting and attractive banknotes from around the world, with great visual, historical and cultural interest - often for only a few pence each. A banknote collection can be a fine investment. Many notes have been growing quite dramatically in value over the years, sometimes even over a few months. Besides this, the hobby is a great educator. It has something to teach everyone, about foreign culture, history, economics - and much more. As communication technologies brings the �global village' ever closer, it becomes ever more desirable to have a knowledge of foreign affairs and cultures. It's amazing how much knowledge of this kind you naturally absorb while enjoying this hobby. But collectors also love banknotes for their rich visual appeal. Every banknote collection is most definitely an art collection - and one of growing value.

Most U.S. National Bank Notes are relatively inexpensive, although the range in value is quite large. The definition of "common" may also not be typical with National Bank Notes, as a note from a bank with only a couple of dozen notes known may be considered "common." This is because, while there only may be a limited number of notes known from a specific bank, more than 14,000 National Banks were chartered to issue these notes, and no single collector can reasonably hope to own them all. As such, most collectors specialize in a single state, city, or even bank. As a result, there may only be a small number of collectors interested in notes from a particular bank, so supply and demand is the overriding factor in value. A note from a bank with as few as five or six notes known may only be worth a small amount of money if only two or three interested collectors are in the market for such a note. The standard reference book to National Bank Notes, by Don C. Kelly, is a must for research on this series of notes.

Another type of luster seen on United States gold coins is satiny in texture. Satiny luster tends to be less attractive than frosty luster but it can be very appealing. I would describe it to the new collector as having asoft look and it is often seen on branch mint coins from the 19th century and on San Francisco issues from the 20th century.
Buy US paper money.

There are two types of coins, those bought for their rarity or numismatic value and those bought for their precious metal bullion value. I recommend buying a one troy ounce bullion gold coin because they are much more affordable than numismatics and also for the same price you will get much more gold metal content which is the whole point of buying the coin (gold attracts wealth). Now that we have decided to buy a one troy once bullion coin, there are many selections. There are 22 karat coins and also 24 karat coins. Due to their durability, I recommend buying a 22 karat coin because they are much more resistant to nicks and scratches. The two best 22 karat coins to invest in are South African Krugerrands and US American Eagles. If you decide to go the 24 karat route, US Buffalos and Canadian Maple Leafs are the best choices. All four of these coins are very popular and readily exchangeable at coin dealers all around the world.
