Young Numismatists (YNs)

Do you like money? Do you like history? Are you age 22 or younger? If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, then YOU can be a YN and discover how much fun coin collecting can be! The ANA’s YN Programs offer a variety of opportunities for young collectors to become engaged in numismatics and learn more about the hobby.

Young Collectors can sign up to receive Your Newsletter, a free electronic newsletter with articles for and by YNs, updates on projects, events and activities. Your Newsletter is available to anyone interested in coins, paper money, tokens or medals by request to outreach@money.org. Have a numismatic article you want published? Send it with your name to YourNewsletter@Money.org.

YNs, age 13-22, are invited to join other collectors at the annual ANA Summer Seminar (aka “Coin Camp”) in Colorado Springs; live on the campus of Colorado College, take a week-long class on numismatics, go on field trips and participate in special activities. Full and partial scholarships are available to ANA members.

ImageAlong with Summer Seminar, the ANA offers YNs opportunities to explore and discover the world of money by participating in the David R. Cervin Ancient Coin Project and the Early American Copper Coin Project.   Additionally, by completing hobby-related activities such as creating an exhibit, writing a numismatic article or visiting the ANA Money Museum, YNs can earn auction money and use it to bid on numismatic collectibles at the annual YN mail and floor bid auction!

As a YN we encourage you to participate in all that the association has to offer in addition to programs especially designed for students and young collectors.   For more information about YN programs contact the Outreach Department staff at outreach@money.org or call 1-719-482-9826.
