International Mint Consortium Establishes Website to Promote Coin Collecting
A consortium of government mints, the International Mint Market Development Council (IMMDC), has launched www.worldmints.com, a website designed to promote interest in coins and coin collecting worldwide.
The website features educational content about numismatics, links to websites of consortium members, links to credible numismatic organizations and publications, and news releases from IMMDC members. The site also features a dealer locator and a discussion forum. "The IMMDC has been meeting quietly for several years, planning a collaborative initiative to help expand the interest in coins worldwide," said Danielle Wetherup, President of the Royal Canadian Mint. "The new website is the first of many initiatives towards providing coin collectors with a tool to help their numismatic pursuits."
IMMDC members include The Austrian Mint; The Mint Bureau, Japan; The Royal Australian Mint; The Royal Candian Mint; The Royal Mint (U.K.); The Singapore Mint; The Spanish Royal Mint and The United States Mint.
