NCNA History - Brief

The North Carolina Numismatic Association was formed in the early 1960s to bring together local coin clubs and their members as well as those interested in numismatics where no local clubs were available in one centralized statewide organization. Today the NCNA boasts 17 member clubs and approximately 300 individual members from all over North Carolina and neighboring states.

The Association holds an annual convention in the fall of each year. In addition to a bourse, where members and non-members alike can trade numismatic collectibles, the Association provides space and display cases for educational numismatic exhibits. Individuals compete for first, second, and third place prizes that are awarded at the convention banquet and member clubs compete for Best Club exhibit. The convention always draws many informative and well-crafted exhibits.

The Association also publishes a quarterly journal, the NCNA Journal. It features a president's message, articles written by members, a coin show calendar, profiles of member clubs, and advertisements from member dealers.

Here is a listing of the past presidents who have so diligently served the NCNA.
