In conjunction with the World's Fair of Money, the ANA announced club publications awards recognizing NBS. The E-Sylum won second place for best electronic club publication, while the print Asylum won third place for best specialty club publication. Congrats to our editors, Wayne Homren and Maria Fanning.
The ANA further awarded three exhibitors in the Numismatic Literature category, which is acknowledged by the Aaron Feldman award. Erwin Brauer won first place, for "Two Significant Numismatic Entrepreneurs: Their Selected Unique, Rare and Related Literature, while second place went to Michael Shutterly, for "A Library of the Works of David R. Sear." Franklin Noel took third place for "Odyssey of a Half Cent: From Discovery Coin to My Coin." Special mention should also be made of Mark Ferguson's non-competitive exhibit, which presented a series of rare and/or unique documents related to the 1804 dollar.
