    Top Ten - U.S. Coin Sites

    These are the Ten Best coin sites in my opinion. Remember though that I'm both a numismatist and a programmer, so technical excellence will get you extra points. If you would like to nominate a site for the Top Ten, use our feedback form to suggest one.

      Coin Universe - A comprehensive site with some good information, plenty of coins for sale and a little bit of investor hype.

      American Numismatic Association - A nonprofit, educational organization, chartered by Congress. Includes the American Numismatic Marketplace, a listing of member dealers.

      Teletrade Certified Coin Auctions - The biggest coin telephone auction on the planet. Great for ultra high grade modern coins.

      Numismatica - Coin information with little hype. Not much technical wizardry, but some good solid information.

      Dahlonega Gold - Despite being VERY specific in nature, the quality of this site demands a visit from time to time.

      USCents.com - The site for copper specialists. All copper, all the time.

      Statmatics - A good guy with a good page. Lots of coins for sale. Somewhat limited in the information department.

      The Society for Die Doubling Collectors of America- A good club page. If you want to know about mint errors, it's a good place to check. The Java version of their pages is a bit busy.

      E-Bay - While not strictly a numismatic site, E-Bay has quickly established itself as a leading place to buy and sell coins. At this red hot moment they have over 20,000 coin lots for sale.

      Honorary #11 - American Coin on the Net (It's my list after all). When and if I deserve to be in the Top Ten, it will no longer be honorary.

    Best Mint Pages

    This is the best official mint site I've seen. Attractive, informative, useful.

      UK Royal Mint, The - Best non-US mint page.
    Best Foreign Coin Sites
      Numismania Homepage - Best Non-U.S. Coin Site (Netherlands)

      Krause Publications - Publishers of some of the best Numismatic periodicals.

    Best Internet Resources
