AIM AFFIRMS PUBLISHING COMMITMENT

Publisher Corinne Zielke of Active Interest Media (AIM) published a note on Friday confirming AIM's commitment to continue publishing their flagship numismatic publications following the recent sale of their core NumisMaster database. -Editor

For more than six decades, Krause Publications, F+W Media, and now Active Interest Media have had the privilege of serving collectors through Numismatic News, World Coin News, Bank Note Reporter, and the NumisMaster database. Throughout that time, our mission has remained the same: to provide collectors with trusted information, reliable market pricing, and engaging editorial coverage that helps them enjoy and grow in the hobby.

As part of our ongoing commitment to that mission, we have sold the NumisMaster pricing database to NGC and PMG, two organizations recognized worldwide for their leadership in coin and paper money authentication, grading, and research. We believe this transition places the database in excellent hands and will allow it to continue to grow and serve collectors for years to come.

I also want to assure our readers that this transaction does not change our commitment to the publications you know and trust. Numismatic News, World Coin News, and Bank Note Reporter will continue to be published by Active Interest Media with the same editorial teams dedicated to delivering the news, feature articles, market analysis, and collecting insights you expect in each issue.

Likewise, the pricing information you rely on will continue to appear in our publications. Numismatic News will continue to publish its quarterly Coin Market pricing, and Bank Note Reporter will continue its monthly Paper Money Market pricing. Our goal remains unchanged: to provide timely, accurate information that helps collectors make informed decisions.

We are proud of the role NumisMaster has played in the collecting community, and we are equally excited about the future of our magazines. Thank you for your continued readership, your enthusiasm for the hobby, and the trust you place in our publications. We look forward to serving you for many years to come.
