The weeklong celebration of coins and currency will commemorate the sesquicentennial of the Civil War and the numismatic changes during the conflict, which began at Fort Sumter, S.C. on April 12, 1861. See the ANA website for more info, and stay tuned for how our club plans to participate! Y N C O R N E R Ahhhh. Summer Seminar It s that time of year again Yep, time to start thinking about what you re going to do this summer. Two young ACC members, Brandon Tangarra and Pete Locke, spent a week last year at the ANA Summer Seminar. Pete also participated in the 2009 session. ANA paparazzi working the annual seminars managed to get a picture of each YN into two separate issues of The Numismatist. Brandon was featured in the recent February, 2011 issue, and Pete was included in the December 2009 publication. Have you thought about a week in Colorado Springs this summer? Take a good look at the brochure on the ANA website. Besides seeing the cool picture of Brandon and the microscope, you ll get to read up on all of the incredible learning opportunities available to young and young-at-heart numismatists. The topics range from introductory grading to detecting counterfeits, and from ancients to coins and currency of the modern world. Presenters like Dr. Richard Doty, Numismatic Curator of the Smithsonian, ensure that each course delivers high value content. Barbecues, outings and mini side trips also keep the experience memorable. And who knows? Perhaps another ACC member like you will grace the pages of a future issue of Yhe Numismatist.
