<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kaparthy, post: 23316, member: 57463&quot;]I worked for <i>Coin World</i>, briefly, at the turn of the century.&nbsp; I consider it the more professional of the two newspapers.&nbsp; It is certainly larger!&nbsp; CW runs about 100 pages and it goes to about 100,000 readers.&nbsp; <i>Numismatic News</i> is about 1/2 to 1/3 the size with only 1/2 to 1/3 the readers.&nbsp; Most collectors apparently feel that <i>Coin World </i> delivers a better value.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>That said, when I started in the hobby about 1992-93, I looked at both and chose <i>Numismatic News</i>.&nbsp; Its smaller size and people-to-people content made it much easier to understand.&nbsp; Also, for those in the hobby for whom the hobby is people, <i>Numismatic News</i> helps you keep track of your friends.&nbsp; NN lets collectors have one free classified ad per issue.&nbsp; (I think they still do that.) CW does not.&nbsp; So, if you want to see if you can make an income (or even a living) at buying and selling, you can try a bit of it via NN.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
