250,000 Coins now Online: Enormous Surge in Popularity for Coin Collecting on the Web

BOCHOLT, Germany, June 10, 2010 - Today "coin collecting", formerly considered a hobby of kings, is
enjoying an enormous surge in popularity. The internet portal
www.ma-shops.com offers the numismatist a choice of 250,000 coins.

Until recently "coin collecting" was a hobby of the past rather than the
future. The numismatic offspring were far too distracted by the excitement of
Playstation and Co. to be interested in coins. Then, however, the revolution
came: the euro was launched as a new currency and, soon afterwards, special
commemorative editions followed, people soon re-discovered the sparkling
amusement in connection with coins - to be enjoyed at a price accessible to a
broad spectrum of the population. On the impressive coin collectors' website,
where today up to five or six digital prices for ancient Aurei (gold coins)
or for old German thaler are asked and also paid, gold and silver pieces are
also in great demand as a potentially crisis-proof financial investment.

It is incredibly easy to buy coins online. At
www.ma-shops.com the collector can browse through an extensive list
containing all German and many foreign dealers in the field of coins, medals
and bank notes. "We have a total of over 250 specialist dealers" explains the
operator of the internet portal, Dipl.-Ing. Joachim Schwiening from Bocholt
in North Rhine-Westphalia. Today more than 250,000 coins constituting a total
value of nearly 30 million euros are available for purchase on his internet
portal. And business is increasing. Here numismatists find a rare "vintage"
edition of the 1-cent euro coin as well as a rare and ancient coin offered at
a high selling price.

All dealers trading on www.ma-shops.com provide a guarantee for
the authenticity of their goods.
