Full Story

This is a welcome development, although I find Coin World's
"pictures of the printed pages" model difficult to use online.
It doesn't lend itself to easily viewing and printing single
articles, nor does it enable keyword searching - the articles
cannot be indexed by Google, for example.  It's quite unlike
what is now standard elsewhere in online newspaper publishing.
Still, the new access is quite welcome and I encourage
subscribers to take zadvantage of it. -Editor]
