Mike Unser, Owner and Editor-

Mike Unser ... Okay, perhaps he's a few years older now ... Collecting coins has been a source of fun and excitement in my family for four generations. I started actively collecting in my early teens and have continued through every stage of my life and careers. That’s now over 30 years of collecting.

At CoinNews Media Group, LLC, we strive to be a great source of coin news, information and coin conversations for the benefit of anyone interested in coins and coin collecting.

If there’s anything you think of that can make this site better, please let us know about that too, in addition to any coin related comments you may have. Thank you.

Rhonda Kay –

I started collecting my coins around 2003. Although I’m a new coin collector, I grew up with an older brother who constantly told my sister and me to search through bags of circulated coins for rare dates/mints. My father collected currency so I was exposed to that side of collecting too. I also worked at a few banks as a teller and found myself looking at coins during the slow periods, but I was not actively collecting at the time, like I do now.

Darrin Lee ... This kid looks young ... While not the coin collector I would like to be, I always find enjoyment in it. Both by purchasing new coins, which can be fun for the present, or by finding older coins.

These older coins have a way of taking me back to the past, either imagining about what times were like when the coin was new, or just remembering my father adding to his collection when I was a kid! –
