jbuck Moderator United States 187702 Posts	Posted 09/03/2021 4:28 pm I have been re-reading scans of old Commodore magazines at commodore.ca and came across a couple of advertisements related to our hobby. This topic might not go far, but decided to post it here in case anyone wanted to share theirs. These have to be from non-numismatic periodicals. Nothing from Coins, CoinAGE, Coin Prices, etc. (For what I hope would be obvious reasons.)

commems CCF Master Historian of USA Commemoratives United States 12257 Posts	Posted 09/03/2021 5:55 pm This topic is going to be tough - but interesting! Here's a Paramount International Coin Corporation ad from 1978 that promotes the coins and stamps issued by Russia for the 1980 Olympics that were to be held there. The ad seen ran in Boy's Life magazine. Collecting history one coin or medal at a time! (c) commems. All rights reserved. Report this Post to the Staff

Extending my sincere appreciation for the valued contributions of the two CCF members above - jbuck and commems You both are amazing. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
halfamind Pillar of the Community United States 1484 Posts	Posted 09/03/2021 6:49 pm Well, every time I open Parade (Sunday newspaper insert), Littleton is trying to get me to buy coins on approval or one of the private mints is trying to sell me a painted quarter or half dollar! Probably NOT what you had in mind, though. Edited by halfamind 09/03/2021 6:50 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 09/03/2021 7:20 pm Littleton would like you to believe it is a huge portal that draws new collectors into the hobby, but in my experience over a long lifetime, the Sundman family thrives on selling hyped beginner sets, gold-plated Buffalo nickels, overpriced everyday coins and flea-market junk. But of course, Coin World gave David Sundman a "Top 100 Numismatists of All Time" award. I wonder if Littleton advertises in Coin World?

NumisRob Bedrock of the Community United Kingdom 17903 Posts	Posted 09/03/2021 8:07 pm I saved these some time ago, as can be seen from the old-style pound coins that were replaced by the bimetallic ones in 2017!

jbuck Moderator United States 187702 Posts	Posted 09/05/2021 11:07 pm Fantastic ads! I could have said "No Littleton Ads," but I am glad they have so far been avoided.
