Contursi Offers New ANA Members One Year Free
(Dana Point, California) – New members of the American
Numismatic Association can save $36 on their initial dues in an ANA
program geared to increase ANA membership, and funded by Rare Coin
Wholesalers of Dana Point, California. The company will pay the
second year of dues when new members apply for a one-year
membership.
“I believe in the ANA, and every collector should, too.
The ANA offers excellent educational benefits for all levels of
collectors from beginning to advanced,” said Steven L. Contursi,
President of Rare Coin Wholesalers and a life member of the ANA.
“In the busy commercial marketplace, some collectors and
dealers overlook or forget about the outstanding programs the ANA
conducts. We would not have such a strong hobby or marketplace
today without the American Numismatic Association,” he said.
Contursi and ANA officials began informally discussing a possible
membership promotion earlier this year.
“I would like to see several thousand new members by this
year’s convention in Denver in August. This is an investment
in the hobby,” Contursi stated.
ANA President William H. Horton Jr. praised Contursi and Rare Coin
Wholesalers for their support: “I hope additional ANA
member-dealers follow his lead in promoting our organization and
hobby. It will be good for everyone.”
To obtain the free second year of ANA membership, new applicants can
simply write, “RCW,” on their membership application. Or, they can download
a special ANA membership application form on the Rare Coin Wholesalers
web site, www.RCW1.com.
“This program is for people who have not been ANA members,
giving them the opportunity to experience the benefits the ANA has to
offer. It is not available for renewing or lapsed members of the
ANA,” explained Chris Cipoletti, ANA Executive Director.
