Brief Numismatists News
Most paper money dealers don't have stores in the same sense as coin dealers. Most transactions occur through the mail and over the phone. It may seem less than ideal initially, but it works very well. Nearly every dealer who works through the mail offers a money-back, no-questions-asked policy. If the note you buy is not really the one you want, you can almost always return it.

Perhaps the most fascinating field of Canadian Numismatics is paper money. The issues to be collected and studied extend from the card money of 1685 up to the present period, and include issues by a number of Colonies (Provinces) prior to Confederation, local governments, private, and chartered banks, business institutions, the Dominion of Canada and the Bank of Canada. Many collectors also include merchant notes or 'bons', education notes issued by Business Colleges, notes issued for political purposes and advertising "bills".

Among my top five worst coin investments are modified coins, such as genuine U.S. Mint products that have been altered by adding holographics or coloring. These coins are generally considered "damaged" by serious coin collectors, and you will only get the bullion value when you go to sell them, if that. I have heard of dealers discounting them because of the added impurities that the paint and other crap applied to the coins adds to the metal.
According to many experts, the best type of investment coins are rarer, key date coins issued by the United States, in the best grade you can afford to buy them in. If you can't afford to shell out $2,000 a coin to buy key dates in high grades, then buy common coins in the finest grades you can. Lower grade, common coins have historically not appreciated as much in value as key date coins do, so they are probably not a good investment choice (although they're great for filling up the holes in albums, especially with kids helping out!)
Buy Krugerrand gold coins.
The U.S. star or replacement note displays a star as a suffix on Federal Reserve notes. A star is used to replace defective notes found during the inspection process at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Since the highest number that can be printed by an eight-digit numbering cylinder is 99,999,999, a star has been used to denote the 100,000,000th note off the press. Historically, star notes hold a value slightly higher than the legal-tender value, with the amount dependent on condition and denomination

Invest in Mexican 50 Peso Gold Coin
By Wilson Snyder
With the recent financial meltdowns and declining US currency, smart investors are looking for better ways for asset preservation. Gold coins are one of the most valuable commodities to protect personal wealth and offset risk, which is discovered during countless crisis situations over the centuries. Although most investors focus on US and European gold coins, Mexican gold coins, especially 50 peso, are also good asset to combat inflation.
Mexican 50 Peso is among one of the most beautiful designs of any gold coins, more than 20% larger than the popular 1-oz Gold Eagles. It features a winged angel with the legendary mountains in the background. The reverse side features an eagle with a snake in its beak.
First minted in 1921, Mexican 50 peso honors the Independence of Mexico. It contains 1.2057oz of gold in an alloy of 90% gold and 10% copper. It was only made from 1921-1931 and then from 1944-1947. Being over 1.2 ounces of contained gold, it is a great vehicle for holding gold than the popular US $20 gold coin, which has less than 1oz of gold. While the price of most of the US gold coins have increased sharply over the past several years, the price of Mexican 50 peso is still in the ground floor. Mexican 50 peso maybe a highly undervalued area in gold coin market. So this is a good time to begin a collection of beautiful Mexican 50 pesos.
In order to purchase Mexican 50 peso gold coin, you may contact your local coin dealers. Most of them sell gold coins to the general public. If you are an information-age coin investor, you can also order it through Internet. There are many websites where you can purchase Mexican 50 Pesos by credit card and your gold coins can be knocking on your door in a UPS package the very next morning.

On my list of "do not buy" coins is those from the Franklin Mint and other premium collectibles mints (such as the Bradford Exchange, etc.) They are aggressive marketers who do sell genuine bullion coins (sometimes) but their coins usually do not have any after-market value among coin collectors and investors. You'll typically pay $45 plus for a one ounce silver coin that is only worth the value of its silver bullion when you go to sell it. (Silver bullion is at about $19 an ounce as I write this.)

A set of high-magnification hand lenses is an invaluable tool for numismatists. However, magnification of 10� and up is only recommended for spotting signs of counterfeiting. Skip Fazzari offers these tips and more.
