What’s New in NumisMaster: December 2024
December’s update on new entries, pricing, and images for the NumisMaster database.
We hit the ground running to start the fourth quarter of the year, adding over 850 new coins with images to the website for the first month, with roughly half of that amount coming from Niue, which has reached over 7,450 in KM numbers. Working on Niue can be a daunting task, with almost 20 mints that produce coins for them. Which begs the question: How many coins are too many coins for a country in any given year? We would love to hear what you think, so if you have an idea or opinion, email us at n@aimmedia.com, and we will share your thoughts in the next issue.
Just as new issue wrap-ups come into play in the last quarter of the year, so do Fall editorial and pricing updates for existing master records. Within the last month, there have been select updates to many countries, including France, Hungary, Bulgaria, Croatia, and the Czech Republic. Saharawi got a complete overhaul with some surprising results. Canadian modern gold commemoratives are seeing a boost, and German commemorative and circulating coins are getting the treatment as well. Finally, a new scholarly work on Guatemala and the Central American Federation by Robert Jovel led us to some interesting revisions in that area that you might enjoy. Look for a review of Jovel’s work on Los Altos on page 22 of World Coin News.
