The New Zealand Mint has rebranded its collectible coin division as Agoro There isn't a coin producer around that has such a presence in the licenced pop-culture coin market than the New Zealand Mint. In fact, it's the overwhelming majority of their issues, with huge names like Star Wars, Harry Potter, Marvel, DC Comics, and [...]
Lots of updates to guides, charts and profiles It's been a busy week after our little break, but you may have noticed there was no news post yesterday. I spent the day, and some time this morning, updating lots of our Coin Series Profiles, Bullion Profiles, and Thematic Guides with new issues, and it always [...]
In need of a recharge, so I'm off for a week Just a quick heads-up that we're off until at least Monday 22nd July. To be honest, I really need a break, as I'm feeling a bit burnt out. I've made an extra effort this week to get a lot of new releases up, so [...]
PRESS RELEASE: U.S. Mint to partner with Warner Bros. Discovery for a new range of DC Superhero coins and medals It appears that the complicated and convoluted world of licencing is getting even more so, with the announcement this morning that the United States Mint will be offering coins and medals featuring DC Comics superheroes.

We’re back at last! Hi everyone, Firstly, huge apologies for the downtime.

That feed has also been halved [...]
UPDATED: A new site update, with a few days off Hi All, We're going to be off for a few days, as, after a longer than expected wait, I have my second eye operation today. Hopefully, that will see things improve for me (it's all a bit depressing, to be honest), and I can finally get on [...]
Just a quick update on the site at the moment As some of you are aware, we attended the World Money Fair in Berlin late last week, and honestly, after three years of not attending (two down to Covid) it was terrific to meet folks again. We saw some quite spectacular issues, many not issuing until later [...]
The 12 Guides of better late than never: #8 - Black Flag by The Perth Mint Yes, I know I utterly failed in my over-ambitious attempt to do a '12 Guides of Christmas', but we did get seven of them out, and they are continuing. The eighth of them is now live, and features [...]
The 12 Guides of Christmas: Number 7 - Tudor Beasts by The Royal Mint We're getting there! Here is the seventh of our 12 Guides of Christmas, which we'll probably rename 12 Guides of Approximately Christmas, as I've yet again underestimated the work involved. You must all be used to it by [...]
