Exhibits
Paul Hybert submitted this reminder about the exhibit area at this month's ANA convention. I'm planning to visit - this is one of my
favorite parts of the event. -Editor
The Collector Exhibits Area at the ANA's "World's Fair of Money" in Philadelphia has a wide range of collector exhibits for your
enjoyment. Use the online Exhibit Guide, located at http://www.chicagocoinclub.org/events/2018/ana/ex/all_by_cl.html to see a list
of the exhibits, arranged over 20 different exhibiting classes. Look for a few exhibits ahead of time, or drop by and look at them all!
This online Exhibit Guide will be updated with corrections and changes so that the final version will list all exhibits that are present when the
area opens to the public on Tuesday.
We are conveniently located to the left as you enter the bourse, before you get to the NBS, Charlie Davis, or Kolbe & Fanning booths.
It looks like a great lineup. There are three exhibits in the Numismatic literature class this year. -Editor
The Elongated Collectors
Bob Fritsch writes:
The Elongated Collectors (TEC) will occupy Table 554 beside the Kid’s Zone at the Philadelphia 2018 World’s Fair of Money. Many items will be
offered including the usual ANA and TEC coins and sets, plus special coins for the 50th annual ANA Summer Seminar in 2018, and memorial coins for
Eric P. Newman and Ed Rochette. Badges suspended from a ribbon will also be available in both enameled and uncolored varieties.
The enameled badge (pictured) is rolled on a 1776-1976 Bicentennial Quarter, while the uncolored one is on a Pennsylvania 50 States
Quarter. Quantities are limited so pre-orders, closing 9 August, are recommended. Go to the TEC Store link at https://tecnews.org/store/ and
click on Pre- order in the left side. Use code ILLBETHERE18 at checkout to pick up at the show and save the shipping cost.
You can also roll coins of your choice (up to half dollar size) at the table. Visit us and create your own souvenir of the show. And consider
joining THE FUNNEST CLUB IN NUMISMATICS. See you there!
