PUBLICATIONS FOR MEDAL COLLECTORS AND DEALERS

Sam Pennington, Publisher of the Maine Antique Digest writes:
"One of the most frequent requests I get as a columnist on
medals is where to buy and sell them - that is, who are the
dealers? Coin dealers are easy to find --they have Coin World
and other magazines to advertise in and we can then find them.
Not so medals dealers, who have no publication.

"So I'm asking any of your readers who deal in medals
to give me their names, specialties and whether they wish
to respond to inquiries.  E-mail samp@maineantiquedigest.com
or snail mail me at Sam Pennington, c/o Maine Antique Digest,
PO Box 1429, Waldoboro, ME 04572. Thanks"

[Well, while there is no popular newsstand magazine or
newspaper in the U.S. devoted exclusively to medals, there
are at least two specialty organizations to refer people to -
the Token and Medal Society (TAMS) and the Medal Collectors
of America (MCA).  The TAMS Journal does run display and
classified advertising from medal dealers, and there are
also some who advertise in the MCA Advisory.  The web
addresses for the organizations appear below.  -Editor]
