On November 16, 2006, Collectors Universe, Inc. issued a press release announcing that its Board of Directors had, pursuant to its previously announced dividend policy, declared the Company’s regular quarterly cash dividend in the amount of $0.08 per common share for the second quarter of fiscal 2007.  The cash dividend will be paid on December 13, 2006 to stockholders of record on November 29, 2006.  A copy of that press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to, and by this reference is incorporated into, this Current Report on Form 8-K.

          As stated in the press release, the declaration of future cash dividends, pursuant to the Company’s dividend policy, is subject to final determination each quarter by the Board of Directors based on a number of factors, including the Company’s financial performance and its available cash resources, its cash requirements and alternative uses of cash that the Board may conclude would represent an opportunity to generate a greater return on investment for the Company.  For these reasons, as well as others, there can be no assurance that dividends in the future will be equal or similar in amount to the amounts described in this press release or that the Board of Directors will not decide to suspend or discontinue the payment of cash dividends in the future.
