Cumulative Index of the Counterfeit Coin Bulletin

(April 2000 – November 2002)

The “Counterfeit Coin Bulletin” was launch as a joint effort by the American Numismatic Association (ANA) and the International Association of Professional Numismatists (IAPN). It replaced the “Bulletin on Counterfeits” which had been produced by the “International Bureau for the Suppression of Counterfeit Coins” (IBSCC) for the IAPN since the 1970s. There is a partial index for the first nine issues of the "Bulletin on Counterfeits", 1976 to 1984, on a site devoted to Sri Lankan coins. Unfortunately in 2003 the ANA no longer felt able to continue with the joint venture. At the time of writing (May 2004) the IAPN have not announced if a successor journal will be published.

This index covers the eight issues of the Bulletin between April 2000 and December 2002. Wherever possible it uses the classifications and words originally used. This occasionally is confusing. There is an entry for Syracusan bronze under Greece and two other Syracusan coins are under Sicily. The main country section of the index is arranged alphabetically by country. Within each country dates are listed from the earliest time to the most recent.
