Our great hobby is often insulated from the outside world. Nevertheless, the US credit crisis, which began to unfold late in 2008, touched off a global event, ultimately resulting in a worldwide recession. It was with profound regret that we learned of the demise of Superior Galleries as an auction house. Then came the failure of a major market-maker, National Gold Exchange, at a time when many dealers were struggling to maintain credit lines. Counterfeits from China loomed large on the radar this year as product emanating from the Orient proved eerily well done, often encapsulated in fake third-party holders that boasted “proper” serial numbers and other trappings that added to these coins’ allure. These frauds were then in play, and only the very best eyes in the hobby

ACTIVITY
The past month saw two significant commercial endeavors in the world of collectable Paper Money: the 24th Annual National and World Paper Money Convention, sponsored by the Professional Currency Dealers Association, and that event’s official auction, cataloged and conducted by Lyn Knight. The bourse at the NWPMC shrank considerably from the year before, with roughly 25% of the 2008 booth holders not returning. The public gate was almost exactly what it had been the year before, topping out at 394, versus just under 410 last year. This figure did not include the estimated 50-75 attendees admitted on the strength of their booth holder credentials at the Silver Dollar and Rare Coin Expo, held in another hall of the St. Charles Convention Center at the same time as
