  Q. David Bowers

ANA Numismatic Personality: Q. David Bowers David Lisot, Interviewer.

He attended the 1955 American Numismatic Association Convention at 15 years old, where he had a bourse table and met many U.S. numismatic personalities including dealers Abe Kosoff, Abner Kreisberg, and B, Max Mehl. Everyone was happy to answer his beginner questions, and ever since Dave has paid it forward by answering questions from new collectors, including yours truly.

He became a member of ANA at 16 and later served on the Board of Governors and as VP and President.

At the time of the interview his "Grandest project" was writing The History of U.S. Coins as Illustrated by the Garrett Collection. He said, "I find coins just as interesting today as when I started 30-some years ago." -Editor
