MCCC Announces Our New & Improved Website
The Montgomery County Coin Club is happy to start the new year by
unveiling the preview of our new website. Redesigned
using WordPress as a content management system, the new website will have many of the same features
of this one but makes it easier to add content. WordPress also allows us to use a more dramatic
design with a crispness in how it works that improves on our current site.
The front page of the new site will always have the announcement of the next meeting near the top
of the page and will be followed by the current news. Archives of meeting announcement and news items
is available from the “About the MCCC” menu option.
New site features include:
Our new site will have an archive of past bulletins with a one-year delay. Although the bulletins
will be uploaded within the next few weeks, the archives will end in 2010. Current members will
continue to receive their current copy via email or the U.S. Postal Service.
Future improvements will include a members only area that will allow members whose dues are paid
in full to access all of the bulletins in the archive,
including the newest edition. Also, within a few months, the every design submitted in 1999 for the
competition to design the Sacagawea Dollar will be available through the new MCCC website. To our
knowledge, it is the only complete set of those designs. Because our only copy is on paper, it
will take time for them to be scanned and uploaded.
Under consideration is an online store to sell MCCC collectible and other MCCC-related items.

and let me know what you think!
MCCC would like to thank the Maryland State Numismatic
Association for allowing us to use their webservice.
