Sounds like it could well be an interesting site, especially if there is input from folks here.....I will be looking for an eventual website link in your future posts. 127 posts already? Looks like you jumped right in to the forums without posting here first.....As I recall, that is what I did also, but I don't think that I ever did introduce myself here.....I guess it is a little to late to do that now...  Anyway,

there are many coin magazines which charge for their subscription, my e journal would be free of cost, as it will be only a pdf file which could be easily downloaded and shared with any other collectors. I would try to keep it free for as long as possible. I am not going in for printing hard copies too, which will keep me from spending. Anybody interested could send me a message to donate articles.
warm wishes.

I understand "free", "pay in copies", and other concepts that request a writer to subsidize a publication. I'm not an expert in anything dealing with coins (as you can tell from any of my posts here), so I'd not be writing any coin articles for anyone. I have a feeling that you'll be writing most of the content, but then you'll have complete control of the contents. Good luck.

yes I will be writing the editors note and focussing on the numismatics resources. Once the coin collectors read the first issue,they would be interested in writing an article. It is the coin collector's views which is being typed out. Only coin collectors know the in and out of numismatics.
warm wishes.
