NNP Adds Bad Metal News

Bad Metal News cover With permission of Winston Zack, Newman Portal now includes Winston's Bad Metal News. This newsletter is devoted to the study and collecting of contemporary counterfeit coins, particularly counterfeit United States coinage of the eighteenth, nineteenth, and early twentieth centuries. The publication reports newly discovered counterfeit varieties, die marriages, manufacturing techniques, and unusual specimens, with particular emphasis on Capped Bust half dollars and other early American denominations.

Illustrated articles document counterfeit coins, counterfeiting technology, and ongoing attribution research, often incorporating discoveries and contributions from fellow collectors. Additional content includes updates on the Bad Metal reference book series, research projects, numismatic events, and newly available collectible material.
