Media Misinformation About Coins Including Gold Coins
Just a small selection of the erroneous and misleading press comments and news items about coins in general, and gold coins in particular.
  • Gold 'Sovereigns' Discovered in Australia?
    Herald Sun
    This article leaves us none the wiser about what, if anything has allegedly been found on a building site in Australia.
  • Healthy Financial Habits
    UNITED STATES AMERICAN EAGLE GOLD BULLION COIN PRICE VALUE TODAY – AMERICAN GOLD EAGLE SILL (sic) AN EXCELLENT CHOICE AS GOLD REACHES FOR $1400 This article looks as though it could have been written by a computer program, except that it would not have contained a spelling error in its headline.
    There remains a strong possibility that it was written by an infinite number of chimpanzees sitting at an infinite number of computer keyboards.
  • Sunday Mercury
    Pregnant Birmingham mum finds 20p coins which could fetch £14,000
    About 99% out!
  • Montreal Gazette
    Manitoba couple learns all that glitters probably is gold.
    Heavy Metal - 14 ounce & 22 ounce coins.
  • ABC News / Entertainment
    John Lennon Coin Issued by UK Royal Mint
    Interesting, but the article failed to mention which country is issuing the coin, Alderney in the Channel Islands.
    This is not so much misinformation, as missing information.
    ABC are not alone, most other reports we have noted fail to state the country of issue.
    Perhaps the Royal Mint failed to make this clear.
  • Royal Mint Issues Coronation Street Coins According to the Daily Mail
    More media misinformation about coins and medals. These are actually medals or medallions, but do journalists or editors care about accuracy?
  • Royal Minit?
    Equestrian coin minted for 2012 Olympics
    But according to Horse Talk Interactive of New Zealand, these are being made by Britain's Royal Minit .

Misleading Adverts
We notice a large number of adverts relating to gold, or coins, investment, jewellery, or scrap, which are rather misleading with errors, inaccuracies, and worse.
We don't have time to list them all, but present a small selection.
