At a time when one large or midsized show after another has been cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic, it's news when one is NOT cancelled. The upcoming Pennsylvania Association of Numismatists (PAN) Fall show is taking place as planned, and will be one of the largest shows yet to resume. Naturally, as Ben Franklin notes, "Plague precautions shall be observed."
PAN Corresponding Secretary Pat McBride provided the following announcement.

PAN FALL COIN SHOW
The October 29 – 31, 2020 Pennsylvania Association of Numismatists (PAN) Fall Coin Show will
take place as planned at the Monroeville Convention Center, a Pittsburgh PA suburb. Covid-19
guidelines will be observed including a daily health form questionnaire, temperature check,
mask wearing, hand sanitizing, and social distancing. These event guidelines must be agreed to
by PAN in order to use the convention center. It is our hope that dealers and attendees will
demonstrate patience and understanding as we navigate through this pandemic.
PAN has borne a financial strain as many businesses have throughout the year. Dealer and
public support will help us to continue our good numismatic work to support the hobby and the
industry. PAN has very actively been at the forefront to keep Pennsylvania a rare coins and
bullion tax free state since the mid 1980's. That has translated into many thousands of dollars
of cost savings for collectors and investors. Our non-profit mission is to encourage all to delve
into the world of numismatics for the history, artistic beauty, and profitability when
approached in a learned manner. We kindly ask that you help us spread the word about our
large regional coin show. With the increasing Fall Covid-19 spread, the PAN show could be the
last one to occur for a while.
