I've suspended my column in Coin World because I haven't been paid since February. I don't know when or if I will be receiving my back pay. I suppose Coin World will start re-running my old columns, but I really don't know what their plans are.

Hmm that is unfortunate, both for you being paid for your time and for the education of the error community.

Sorry to learn this Mike.

If I recall correctly, this is the 2nd time you have been forced to stop writing for them due to not being paid.

Sad to hear this Mike. You've always been a great help here at CCF and all of us appreciate it. You deserve better treatment from the magazine.

That is atrocious behavior by Coin World! >.<

Sorry to hear that Collectors' Clearinghouse will be paused again. Your articles are always enjoyable and educational.

That is ridiculous. How do they expect their writers to make a living if they don't pay them? Isn't that illegal?
