Morning!!
Just a quick note today on something cool our coin hobby is doing for National Coin Week this week :)
For today and tomorrow only, if you use code NCW20G. you can get a FREE YEAR of membership into our national association! The ANA! (American Numismatic Association)
Which gets you the following goodies:
- Online access to every issue of The Numismatist from 1888 to the present — our hobby’s premier magazine. (Numismatics is the study or collection of currency, including coins, tokens, paper money and other related objects)
- Free admission to the annual National Money Show® and World’s Fair of Money®
- Discounts on seminars, hobby publications, collection insurance and more
- Access to ANA videos, Money Talks radio archives, blogs, coin collecting tips, and the ability to join ANA’s members-only Facebook group
- And fun quizzes, games, and teacher tools for parents (or grandparents) with kids at home
This is pretty cool for the magazine alone which is super good, so if you’ve ever been curious about collecting coins or learning about the hobby, now would be a good time to puruse it!
You can learn more about our association here –> Money.org (how’s that for a domain name!)
And then more about this free membership offer here: info.money.org/free-membership
And if this isn’t for you, no problem at all! Maybe you know of someone else in your family or circle of friends (or kids?!) that might like this? Just pass them the link to this article and hopefully it turns into a fun hobby for them! :)
For more coin related resources around:
- CoinThrill.com — my almost defunct blog on coin collecting, though still chock full of fun articles and pictures ;) (Still waiting to “trade up” my $50 bill btw for the next item!! If you got anything you’d like to trade for it, lemme know!)
- How to Sell Your Inherited Coin Collection — a guide I put together if you must depart with your acquired coins… *tear*
- Tips on how to get started collecting if you’re new (article here on this blog)
Come join the fun! We’re cool – I promise! ;)

Awesome! I’ve been wanting to learn more about coins so I can start reselling them. This will come in handy! Thanks for the info
Cool!
Make sure to pass this list of future coins for sale over to me, along with a hefty discount! ;)
Haha, will do!
Perfect for my nephew, who inherited my dad’s paper/coin collection! My dad was in the US Navy, so he collected from around the world and here at home. More fun and education during lockdown! Thanks J$.
NEAT!!!
Those are the best collections to inherit since you get to see such a *variety* of items from around the world, and hopefully one of them excites you enough to continue on the hobby :)
You’ll have to let him know to check out the (digital) magazine subscription he’ll get too with the membership, as that also puts you in the middle of all sorts of areas of interest to choose from! I’m always learning new and fun things from reading it!
This is great. I have been spending a lot of time looking through my collection. I just signed up. I also will see if i can put together a nice trade for the $50.
Awesome!!!
YES PLEASE!!
We need to get that game kick started again! :)
Thanks so much for the heads up! I just got my free membership! I am starting to get my self educated on coins, coin collecting, and investing in gold, silver and precious metals, so the timing of this article was perfect for me. Keep up the great work!
Rock on! Welcome to the community! :)
