I just got back from Central States, after a successful show held in Rosemont (where the ANA will be held in August).  Of course, the hottest aspect of the coin show was silver... Morgan Dollars, Silver Eagles, bars, you name it...all were in demand.  

We really have three purposes at shows... to meet clients, show off highlights and collect consignments.  We did all three this show, in fact you will start to see some of the coins we brought back uploaded to our site later today and tomorrow.  We also have a special consignment, which we can't announce just yet, but will in the next week or so.

Last week, we implemented a new sorting feature on all search, denomination and coin series pages.  You can now sort by "Coin Catalog 1792-2011" order.  This basically takes whatever results are on the page (either search results, or denominations/coin series) and sorts them into what you would see in a typical coin catalog order, starting with Half Cents through Double Eagles.  I am not sure if any other

We're working on other features for our website, but today and tomorrow, our days will be filled shipping last night auction winnings as well as uploading another 500-600 new coins to our website.

All the best,

Ian Russell
