Oliver Amos of Amos Press (what would later become Amos Media Company) in Sidney, Ohio in March of 1960. In continuous publication ever since, Coin World has evolved time and time again to serve the hobbyist. Today, every issue of Coin World's monthly magazine includes Coin Values for selected coins. David L. Vagi is a lifelong numismatist who has studied ancient Greek and Roman coins since 1985. After entering the field professionally as a staff writer for Coin World, he later worked as a numismatist for the auction houses Christie’s, Superior Stamp and Coin, Spink America and R.M. Smythe before establishing Delphi International Ancient Arts, which he ran from 1996 to 2008, when he joined NGC. Vagi’s 1,294-page book, Coinage and History of the Roman Empire, received “book of the year” awards from the NLG, the International Association of Professional Numismatists (IAPN) and the Professional Numismatists Guild (PNG). Published in two volumes, the work is considered by many to be the starting reference book for collectors of ancient Roman coins. Vagi is also contributing author to six other numismatic books.
