THE AUTHORITY

About Josh

I’m the Senior Coin Editor here at U.S. Coins Guide.

My love for coins began when I was 11 years old. I primarily collect and study U.S. coins produced during the 20th century.

Professionally, I’m a member of the American Numismatic Association (ANA), the Numismatic Literary Guild (NLG), and have won multiple awards from the NLG for my work as a coin journalist. I’m also the editor at the Florida United Numismatists Club (FUN Topics magazine), and author of Images of America: The United States Mint in Philadelphia (a book that explores the colorful history of the Philadelphia Mint).

I’ve contributed thousands of articles for various coin publications including COINage, The Numismatist, Numismatic News, Coin Dealer Newsletter, Coin Values, and CoinWeek.

I’ve authored over 1,000 articles here at the U.S. Coins Guide — many of them with over 50K shares. I welcome your questions about U.S. coins!
